Staff Mechanical Engineer at Beacon Water Technologies / Orthos Liquid Systems, preparing filtration system submittals and resolving design RFIs.
What I'm looking for
At Beacon Water Technologies / Orthos Liquid Systems, I prepare equipment proposals and submittal packages for pile cloth media filtration systems. I check submittals against specifications, drawings, and schedules, and resolve discrepancies and open RFIs with the design engineer of record.
At Quantum Surgery Center, I cleaned and restructured electronic medical record data, improving query reliability by 40 percent. I also created a tracking system for records moving through intake, consultation, and conversion.
At BrightUro, I isolated hardware and software failures and designed, prototyped, and independently deployed a robotic assembly solution. I also developed human factors testing protocols supporting an FDA 510(k) submission.
For my graduate motion-planning project, I developed a Python planner for aerial interception and validated it across 500 Monte Carlo trials, achieving 85.8 percent interception. In my senior capstone, I led electromechanical design through a permanent installation, including a custom PCB and testing of 559 electromagnets.
