EDUCATION: Syracuse University, Syracuse NY College of Engineering and Computer Science; Major: BSAerospace Engineering, Minor: math. GPA 3.6 graduation date May 2016.

Alfred State College, Alfred, NY; Major: AS Engineering Science, GPA 3.85, 2014 Magna Cum Laude

SKILLS: Star CCM+, MATLAB/Simulink, CAD- Inventor, Microsoft Office, Data analysis.

PROJECTS/APPLICATIONS:●RC Aircraft Design: Extensive research and build project including all components of airplane design (i.e. wing aerodynamics, structural, payload system, weight and balance, fuselage, tail, landing gear, longitudinal stability). The objective of the project is to build an aircraft capable of delivering pizzas. ●Airfoil Modeling: A source panel method was used to model the flow about an airfoil within MATLAB. Lift was

incorporated by using Laplace’s governing equation to add a vortex to the velocity potential.●Stewart Platform: This is a six degree of freedom platform that can be used to simulate any type of motion in a vehicle such as a car or plane. It is currently being prototyped with six servos motors and an Arduino micro controller. I have future plans to build a full scale model that uses an Oculus Rift as a visual aid. ●Computational Fluid Dynamics : Using MATLAB a script was written to model the heat/convection equation. Multiple flow types were modeled including steady, unsteady, 1-Dimensional, and 2-Dimensional cases. The computational results were compared against exact solutions to see the effect of various finite modeling techniques.

COURSEWORK: Computational Fluid Dynamics, Partial Differential Equations, Synthesis of Aerospace systems, Propulsion.

EXPERIENCE: Summer 2015 – Engineering Internship – Entergy Corporation Oswego, NY.Internship project: Flood Modeling. For the project I used the continuity equation to model the flow rates in and out of a room as a function of the flood height. This approach resulted in a piece-wise ordinary differential equation due to the location of the flood drains within the room. To solve the piece-wise function I wrote a code in MATLAB to numerically solve the ODE using a Runge-Kutta method. The solution gave insight into the amount of time required for the room to flood before anything vital to the nuclear power plant was damaged.

2010-2014 Supervisor/ Senior Lifeguard – Watkins Glen State Park. Supervised lifeguards, prepared schedules, quality controls, coordinated rescues, emergency management.

LEADERSHIP: Dean’s List Standing (all college semesters), Phi Theta Kappa National Honor Society, Recipient of Syracuse University Dean’s Scholarship- Merit based, Recipient Alfred State College DS President’s scholarship – Merit based, Member and Scribe Theta Tau (Professional Engineering Fraternity)
