      Sept 2015 - May 2017
      Undergraduate research assistant, composites manufacturing and simulation center

      Under Professor R. Byron Pipes I was responsible for designing, building, and analyzing the strength capabilities of carbon fiber / PEKK pre-impregnated material used in commercial aircraft. I routinely presented findings to faculty members, trained new undergraduate research assistants, and consistently developed new, more efficient methods of preparing specimens for testing based on input from other team members.

      Summer professional enrichment intern, high performance polymers division

      Over the summer I was in charge of optimizing the processing conditions and determining the tensile properties of composite laminates. Through preliminary research and experimentation I defined a simple, yet effective way to impregnate the carbon fiber with a matrix material. I then validated my conditions quantitatively through flex and tensile analysis. I presented my findings to faculty members and provided written instructions on my processing methods for the department.
