I am primarily a Mechanical Design Analyst and Test Engineer with a Bachelor’s Degree in Mechanical Engineering, additional classes in Computer Science, and graduate courses in Materials Science. I have Six-Sigma Green Belt certification and am the principal engineer on two patents. As an Analyst and Test Engineer, I have led or contributed to static and dynamic evaluations of gas turbine compressor rigs, bird ingestion and fan blade containment tests. I was also responsible for gas turbine engine component and system environmental testing and in-flight engine testing as airborne data acquisition and signal processing crew.
