  Taconic Innovations Inc

  Jun 2014 - Aug 2014

  Life Skills Coach

  Taconic Innovations is a not-for-profit company that serves the metally challenged community. Their goal is to help their consumers reach their own goals, whatever they are, and become more self-sufficent. The individuals I served were pursuing High School Diplomas and Drivers Licenses. I tutored them one-on-one in geometry, algebra, science, reading, traffic law, social skills, and life skills.

  Department of Environmental Facilites

  Engineering Intern

  I used Global Information System (GIS) to map and inventory water features at the grasslands campus, archived drawings and other documents, and toured sewer, water, and solid waste facilities.

  Hoffmann & Feige Consulting Engineers

  Jun 2015 - Aug 2015

  Testing Technician

  I tested cryogenic epoxies' abilities to seal pipe flanges despite temperature fluctuations, to see if the epoxies could be used to seal a leaking liquid natural gas system. I assembled and pressure tested pneumatic test fixtures and performed cryogenic tests (20 cycles from -231F to 70F). I worked with liquid nitrogen, flow meters, pressure valves, temperature recorders, regulators, flanges, and gaskets. http://www.hoffmann-feige.com/

  Sterilis Medical

  May 2016 - Oct 2016

  Engineering Co-op

  I worked with the engineers at Sterilis Medical to test and continuously improve the Sterilis medical waste disposal machine. This machine sterilizes regulated medical waste using a steam pressure vessel, then grinds the waste into a confetti-like material which can be thrown out with the trash. I worked on improvements to the grinder, re-validating sterilization testing, technical writing for field service, and software quality assurance testing.

  Johnson Controls

  Jun 2017 - Aug 2017

  Engineering Intern

  I supported the existing commercial sprinkler line at JCI/Tyco by testing the performance of storage sprinklers, which provide rapid ceiling-based fire protection in large warehouses. I benchmarked sprinklers against competitors’ products and international standards. I also evaluated manufacturing samples for quality control.
