What I'm looking for

I am looking for a full-time position that offers opportunities for hands-on engineering, innovation, and collaboration in a dynamic environment.

I am a dedicated mechanical engineer with a Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering from Prairie View A&M University. My academic journey has taken me across six countries, enriching my understanding of global engineering practices and enhancing my communication skills in English, Portuguese, and Spanish. I thrive in multicultural environments and am adept at collaborating with diverse teams to achieve common goals.

Currently, I serve as a Process Control Specialist at Amazon, where I leverage my engineering expertise to streamline operations and improve customer satisfaction. My previous role as a Mechanical Engineer at Laser Weld Inc. allowed me to innovate in machinery programming and design, significantly reducing waste and enhancing production efficiency. I am passionate about hands-on engineering, technology commercialization, and R&D, and I am eager to contribute my skills to a dynamic team.
