PhD candidate in Mechanical and Industrial Engineering at Rochester Institute of Technology, specializing in thermal management, two-phase heat transfer, and high-heat-flux electronics cooling. Co-inventor on US Patent 12,349,313 B2 with peer-reviewed publications through ASME. I help clients solve complex thermal and fluid problems with rigorous engineering analysis — the same standards I apply to my own published research and patent work. My core areas: • Thermal & CFD Analysis — ANSYS Fluent, conjugate heat transfer, conduction/convection/radiation modeling, electronics cooling, heat sink design, two-phase flow and boiling • Numerical Modeling & Simulation — Python and MATLAB thermal models, Simulink/Simscape system simulation, transient bioheat transfer, parameter sweeps, optimization • Experimental Design & Data Analysis — DAQ systems (LabVIEW), uncertainty analysis, regression modeling in R, test rig design, instrumentation • Technical Writing — Journal manuscripts, conference papers, patent documentation, technical reports written to publication standards Prior industry experience as a Mechanical Engineering Co-op at Simutech Group supporting clients including GE and Andritz on data acquisition systems. My academic research focuses on subcooled pool boiling at subatmospheric pressures for data center cooling applications, achieving CHF values up to 195 W/cm² on copper substrates. I take on projects where precision matters. If you need someone who treats your problem the way a peer reviewer would treat a journal submission, let's talk.

I enjoy the entrepreneurial working atmosphere! I began my career in the small mold shops, custom molders and then larger companies like Kodak. I have been a Solidworks 3D Modeler since 1998 and for the last 7 years have been chairman of the local Solidworks user group. I would sum up my skills as a classic Design Engineer with "major" in design and a "minor" in processing. In recent years I have worked "on site" and also as a separate entity. My recent projects have been starting from scratch and being handed a partially done project with aggressive deadlines. I have the expert experience to manage both. So whether you have a one part "widget" or full plastic enclosure of electronic device I will work with you every step of the way and make our path successful.
