Education

M.S. in Electrical Engineering – Power systems (Anticipated graduation: Spring 2011)

Arizona State University, USA (GPA – 3.1)

B.E. in Electrical Engineering

Gujarat University, India (GPA – 3.9)

Work Experience

Intern Electrical Design Engineer (Stantec HVAC Consultants, India) August 2007 – June 2009

Performed calculations for Indoor lightening and outdoor lightening for 220V/110V AC systems.

Implemented AC load calculations, fault current calculations, required switchgear ratings and conduit

sizing for residential and commercial buildings. Prepared single line diagram (layout) for indoor and

outdoor lightening design using AUTOCAD 2007. Worked on design of low voltage system for

residential complexes (12 V system).

Independent Projects

LED Lighting (Independent Project) Spring 2007

Engineered circuitry and prepared design and layout of LED lighting system for small office space.

Hover Craft (Indian Institute of Technology – Madras) Fall 2007

As the team leader, supervised a team of five to prepare a hover craft prototype. Engineered the

circuitry and designed control circuit to lift and move the hover craft.

Course Work Projects

Residential, Industrial and Commercial Building Design (Gujarat University) Fall 2008

Designed load calculations, one line diagram (wiring design and calculations), and prepared

distribution layout for residential, industrial and commercial buildings using AUTOCAD 2007.

Designed low voltage system (Fire alarm system) for a small residential building.

Distribution Electric System (Arizona State University – Transmission and Distribution) Spring 2010

Completed power load calculations for a selected area of an urban region of India and prepared

design to erect area’s distribution network. Ratings of the switchgear were also included in the

distribution system’s design.

Design and Drafting (Gujarat University – Electrical Machine Design) Fall 2008

Designed winding type, electrical parameters, magnetic parameters and physical dimensions of the

three phase transformer. Used AutoCAD 2007 to prepare the design layout.

Power Flow Study (Arizona State University – Power System Analysis) Spring 2010

Analyzed the power flow and calculated the required switchgear rating of a power system by adding

faults to bus and overloading transmission lines using Power World Simulator. Impact on power

system was also analyzed by tripping and adding generating units to the system.

MultiMachine Stability (Arizona State University – Power System Stability) Fall 2009

Performed stability studies using DSA tools for a multi machine system and compared those results

with the mathematical model developed using MATLAB.

Certifications

FE/EIT exam scheduled in April. Working knowledge of National Electrical Code (NEC), International

Electrical Code (ICC) and IEEE codes and standards.
