WORK EXPERIENCE: Research Assistant - University of Cincinnati CFD Research Lab, Cincinnati, Ohio July 2018 – Present • Exploring the state of the art on burn rate modifying methods for solid rocket fuels and writing a review paper, Parameters Influencing Regression Rate of Solid Rocket Fuels, to establish a basis for a custom rocket fuel design Research and Development Co-op - Etegent Technologies Ltd., Norwood, Ohio August 2017 – Present • Manufactured, performed dynamic stress analyses, and developed thermal response calculations for new ultrasonic temperature probes for integration into a turbofan engine test • Analyzed vibration data in MATLAB from two turbine engine tests that utilized Etegent’s engine health monitoring sensors to develop an automatic threshold for failure of the engine bearings which detects bearing defects sooner than current methods, thus increasing the safety of aircrafts • Designed a high frequency shaker table through material selection, Solidworks modeling, modal analysis in ANSYS, and stress evaluation in ANSYS to ensure the table will be reliably controlled within 1kHz; which is double the controllable frequency of most commercially available high frequency shaker tables Design Co-op - Kinetic Vision, Cincinnati, Ohio May 2015 – May 2017 • Designed surgical devices to client specifications and requirements then prototyped the designs using CNC mill, laser cutter, lathe, and outside vendors • Created Solidworks animations of surgical device mechanism designs to improve clarity of our ideas to clients • Manufactured and designed fixtures for interacting with products during CT scanning to evaluate internal behavior of fluids, mechanisms, or deformations for clients to validate products during operation • Created design and utility patent drawings in DraftSight for innovative medical devices and aerospace components which often involved creating a 3D model from a client sketch to prove feasibility ORGANIZATION INVOLVEMENT: Midwest Hyperloop/Hyperloop UC – Structures Team Member July 2018 – Present • Designed structural components such as power transmission, battery enclosures, and the chassis in Solidworks then performed structural and modal analysis in Abaqus of the parts to ensure structural strength • Project lead for the Hyperloop UC Senior Capstone project dedicated to the design, manufacturing, and demonstration of a scale levitation pod to use as promotional tool for visualizing the future of Hyperloop

Fly UC – President December 2018 – Present • Lead and guide the sub-teams (electrical, structures, etc.) towards achieving the team goal of designing, controlling, and building a personal VTOL aircraft • Presented the project at conventions, events, and senior capstone proposals to promote interest in STEM and our project FlyUC – Propulsion Team Lead August 2018 – December 2018 • Managed the design and testing of a thrust test stand and safety enclosure for a contra-rotating propeller set • Designed and prototyped a half scale version of the personal VTOL aircraft that the club is currently developing • Lead a Solidworks demonstration for students with limited 3D CAD experience to learn proper modeling technique and Solidworks basics with the intent of helping them better communicate and prototype their ideas • Started and oversee the FlyUC Senior Capstone project which works to develop a variable pitch mechanism for propeller blades that can maintain blade pitch during maximum propeller speed SKILLS AND OTHER EXPERIENCE • Solidworks, NX, Autodesk Inventor, CATiA, Solid Edge, Creo Parametric, ANSYS, ABAQUS, MATLAB, XModal, SprutCAM, DraftSight, Keyshot, Microsoft Office • CNC mill, manual mill, lathe, surface grinder, laser cutter, 3D printers, MIG and TIG welding, bandsaw, soldering
