Highly experienced Mass Properties Engineer (MPE) as a generalist across many domains, as opposed to specific to a few. Also have had job title of Subject Matter Expert (SME). Have been fortunate to have served as a contractor/loanee on such diverse programs as: Lockheed (L-2000) SST; NASA/Cal-Tech//JPL Mars Mariner; NASA Space Shuttle Orbiter; and many others. For this reason, in addition, I have added a section (pgs 3-4) formatted by OEM for brevity emphasizing ALL Boeing Co. experience and welcome further inquiry as to tasks performed.
