Work History
Senior Structures Engineer
Pratt & Whitney
12.2020 - Current
- Developed, released, and supported multiple PROD versions of the HCFLife tool, providing P&W engineers with up-to-date, single source-of-truth HCF Capability curves instantaneously.
- HCF Lifing focal for the F135 ECU and B-52 contracts, including collaborative development of material characterization and verification test matrices to meet program and customer requirements.
- Established and executed the test matrices for the HCF Unified Lifing Model to help build a more comprehensive assessment of a material's HCF capability and support early understanding of component effects in the design process.
- Developed, standardized, and documented a statistical process to objectively compare multiple HCF data sets and determine similarity, eliminating non-value-added and inconclusive comparisons done previously.
- Established and documented a risk-based procedure to guide Module Center engineers in determining if a HCF Test can be waived, reducing the burden on test facilities while preserving component integrity.
- For multiple programs, both military and commercial, ensured engine/rig safety while allowing for continued testing through implementation of HCF damage accumulation assessments.
- Performed, documented, and reviewed validation testing for ERS-Toolbox software, allowing for tangible assessment of real-part residual stress state in HCF fatigue assessment.
Structures Engineer
Pratt & Whitney
02.2018 - 12.2020
- Developed, documented and released the integrated material life system for DA718, a rotor grade material.
- Monitored, analyzed and provided insight into measured structural data at engine test under high pressure and intense conditions.
- Standardized the assessment of a part's resonant allowable and documented in to engineering standard work.
- Provided hands-on technical support and advice for high cycle fatigue lifing to all levels of personnel.
- Automated the process of extracting high cycle fatigue test data to create material specific capability diagrams using VBA.
- Performed structural and lifing assessment on lab specimens to simulate engine conditions that will be used to address legacy fleet issues.
Associate Structures Engineer
Pratt & Whitney
02.2016 - 02.2018
- Constructed an optimization model to help design and analyze a new fan blade by balancing constraints and requirements using iSight.
- Responded to customer requests and questions in a timely manner as a program focal lead.
- Worked efficiently under strict deadlines to make sure that new programs were maintained, updated and distributed for scheduled releases.
- Provided on-site technical training (ETU) for the PWLife computer program.
- Supported the certification of a workflow to determine part life and presented at a technical advisory board meeting to chiefs and fellows. Documented instructions for the lifing workflow and helped train users.
