Here I design heat exchange coils for both nuclear and non-nuclear applications. I work directly with the engineering team to create models and blueprints of various types of coils that range from heating to cooling applications depending on what the customer needs. I work with ASME and ANSI code applications to determine the materials needed for specific applications and design the coils based on the necessary size and heating/cooling requirements given by customers. I have worked with nuclear power plants around the world including Duke energy, Constellations, TVA, Ontario Power, and many more to deliver the most optimal heat exchanger for their desired application.

I maintained a level of organization and cleanliness within the parts warehouse I worked in, and I oversaw all parts coming in and going out. this included working directly with vendors to ensure we were getting parts and materials in a timely manner as well as getting them at the best prices possible. I also developed an inventory system that they are still using to this day that allows for constant monitoring of inventory levels in order to ensure no parts or materials went missing due to negligence.
