PROVEN ABILITIES
BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING
Conducted performance/safety testing of new or proposed products; interface to solveclinical
problems to fulfillMaster’s Degree requirements.
Created designs with an in-depth understanding of biology/healthcare/living systems and technology.
Skilled in research/collaboration with researchers in medicine, physiology,and nursing.
Tookseveral Biomedical and Physiology courses at the undergraduate and graduate level with
emphasis on basic anatomy.
DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS
Develop equations to model new system capabilities - resulting in higher fidelity models and better
threats forwar fighters to train against. Lead team to determine best way to model conservation of
momentum.
Compile engineering notes and Specification Checklists to demonstrate any differencesbetween
specification and model.
Review work products produced by team forquality, completeness, and adherence to standards.
Generate impact studies and presentations for projectmanagers/team leads.
Build and deliver modeling products to simulate enemy missile systems in support of the Missile
Defense Agency (MDA)and MDA’s Ballistic Missile Defense System. Meet critical deadlines.
Create/implement processes to test new model abilities; resulting in decreasing validation
processes/timelines. Reduced man hours and increased productivity of modelers.
Increase understanding of new software, procedures, and updates. Produce and communicate value
systems for customers. Contribute to weekly status meetings with senior management and
stakeholders.
PROBLEM SOLVING
Research, interpret, and apply parameters to build, replicate, and propagate missile or space launch
trajectories to include: staging, debris, countermeasures and RV/ Payload traits.
Understand and work around software limitations to model new system capabilities. Develop new
software tools.
MECHANICAL DESIGN
Evaluated mechanical and electromechanicalsystems and products by designing and conducting
research programs; applying principles of mechanics, thermodynamics, hydraulics, heat transfer, and
materials, to fulfill Bachelor’s degree requirements.
Confirmed system and product capabilities by designing feasibility/testing methods and testing
properties.
