experience asaSupervisorandas an EngineeringIntern. Teamplayer,dedicatedandhardworking.
Graduatedtop 5% of class. Available andable torelocate anywhere.
EDUCATION: Syracuse University,Syracuse NYCollege of EngineeringandComputerScience;Major:BS
Aerospace Engineering,Minor:math. GPA 3.6 graduationdate May 2016.
AlfredState College,Alfred,NY;Major:AS EngineeringScience, GPA 3.85, 2014 Magna CumLaude
SKILLS: Star CCM+, MATLAB/Simulink,CAD- Inventor, MicrosoftOffice,Data analysis.
PROJECTS/APPLICATIONS:
●RC AircraftDesign:Extensive researchandbuild projectincludingall componentsof airplanedesign(i.e.wing
aerodynamics,structural,payloadsystem, weightandbalance, fuselage,tail,landinggear,longitudinal
stability). The objectiveof the projectistobuildan aircraftcapable of deliveringpizzas.
●Airfoil Modeling:A source panel methodwasusedtomodel the flow aboutanairfoil withinMATLAB.Liftwas
incorporated byusingLaplace’sgoverningequationtoadda vortex to the velocitypotential.
●StewartPlatform:Thisisa six degree of freedomplatformthatcanbe usedtosimulate anytype of motionin
a vehicle suchasa car or plane.It iscurrentlybeingprototypedwithsix servosmotorsandanArduinomicro
controller.I have future planstobuilda full scale model thatusesanOculusRiftas a visual aid.
●Computational FluidDynamics: UsingMATLABa scriptwas writtentomodel the heat/convectionequation.
Multiple flowtypeswere modeled includingsteady,unsteady,1-Dimensional,and2-Dimensional cases.The
computational resultswere comparedagainstexactsolutionstosee the effectof variousfinite modeling
techniques.
COURSEWORK:Computational FluidDynamics,Partial Differential Equations, Synthesisof Aerospacesystems,Propulsion.
EXPERIENCE: Summer2015 – EngineeringInternship –EntergyCorporationOswego,NY.
Internshipproject:FloodModeling. Forthe projectI usedthe continuityequationtomodel the flow ratesin
and outof a room as a functionof the floodheight. Thisapproachresultedinapiece-wiseordinarydifferential
equationdue tothe locationof the flooddrainswithinthe room.Tosolve the piece-wisefunctionIwrote a
code in MATLAB to numericallysolve the ODEusingaRunge-Kuttamethod.The solutiongave insightintothe
amountof time requiredforthe roomtofloodbefore anythingvital tothe nuclearpowerplantwasdamaged.
2010-2014 Supervisor/ SeniorLifeguard–WatkinsGlenState Park. Supervised lifeguards,preparedschedules,
