Summary
An engineering professional with a broad knowledge in Mechanical / Electrical Design Engineering in addition to Project and Marketing Manager experience. The last four years I have been designing new and modifying existing automated/parcel conveyor systems. As the Mechanical Design Engineer, I designed Motorized Drive Roller (MDR) and Parcel Conveyors. I created drawings for customer approvals, permits, installations, fabrication, and as-builts. I would like to extend this experience to further my knowledge in the automated/parcel conveyor industry whether it is using new techniques or software tools.
