Bachelor of Science, Mechanical Engineering, May 2024 Tallahassee Community College Tallahassee, Florida Associate of Arts, May 2024
Work Experience
6/23-11/24: Danfoss Tallahassee, Florida
Industrial Engineering Intern
• Designed and managed material flow for manufacturing and production to establish a superior method for a new assembly line that would increase the output by about 50% per shift.
• Developed part handling procedures to deliver parts to production which supported time critical deliveries and improved efficiency on the manufacturing floor.
• Managed machine layout and organization to improve cycle time by 10 to 15%.
• Designed and implemented multiple parts to improve assembly by yielding better ergonomics and faster cycle times.
• Documented line progress data during System Acceptance Test. This allowed us to ensure the functionality of the assembly line as well as gain experience with trouble shooting and identify all existing issues to present solutions.
8/18-5/19: Tallahassee Memorial Hospital Tallahassee, Florida Cardiology Unit
• First-hand experience of surgical procedures and the equipment used in procedures which provided a unique learning opportunity regarding attention to detail, adherence to procedures, and precision equipment. Additional Information
PROJECTS Search Hawk (FSU Emergency Management and Homeland Security Program Sponsored)
• Objective: Using CREO, design and build a rover to be used in emergency search and rescue such as earthquakes and in surf side locations.
• Key Tasks:
o Programmed Raspberry PI to operate four DC motors and two cameras one of which was thermal.
o Programmed LCD screen to display live feed from the cameras. o Programmed remote to operate all motors and toggle between thermal and normal. o Constructed final assembly and inlayed the motors, motor controllers, cameras, and the Raspberry PI.
• Results: Delivered a functioning prototype to the sponsor. Our team further developed this design by adding stronger motors and better wheels to allow for better mobility to meet the needs of the sponsor.
Honing Cooling Process (Danfoss Sponsored)
Objective: Design a cooling process for shaft bearings to meet cycle time requirements. Key Tasks:
o Built assemblies and drawings in Creo
o Assembled the final product and ran testing to determine final cooling time. Results: Over the course of a year the team met all objectives as scheduled and produced a functioning prototype that met the customers needs. Additionally, the team completed testing and provided simulations to show that the design would increase output of parts produced by 10%.
Formula Society of Automotive Engineers Car Venturi Type Intake Restrictor Objective: Design multiple restrictors of varying dimensions to determine optimum dimensions for air flow.
Key Tasks:
o Used COMSOL to develop restrictor models and ran simulations changing converging and diverging angles
o Plotted the data for velocity, pressure, and mass flow rate to support analysis Results: Learned how to operate COMSOL, run flow simulations, and interpret flow data. The results of this project were the optimal angles for a Venturi type intake restrictor which were a convergence angle of 16 degrees and a divergence angle of 10 degrees. Stirling Engine
Objective: Design, machine, and assemble each part to construct a functioning Stirling Engine.
Key Tasks:
o Created 3-D parts in CREO (ProE) and created an assembly with an exploded view in CREO.
o Created engineering drawings from the modeled parts o Used drawings to cut and drill 7 parts and assemble them to form a functioning engine.
Results: Learned how to construct parts and build assemblies in CREO and how to use a mill and a lathe to machine parts. The results of this project were the construction of a functioning Stirling Engine.
