Greetings! I am a mechanical engineer and graduate of Saint Martin's University, where I earned my Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering with a concentration in Intelligent, Dynamic Systems and Analysis.
My journey into engineering was shaped early on by my father, who worked on satellites at TRW Inc. prior to its acquisition by Northrop Grumman. That exposure to aerospace systems sparked a lasting interest in space exploration and continues to influence the direction of my career.
I currently work as a Component Test Engineer at Blue Origin, supporting the development and production of New Glenn. In this role, I lead component and subassembly level test efforts across mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic, actuated, and cryogenic systems. My work focuses on developing and executing test campaigns, integrating hardware into automated test environments, and validating performance through data driven analysis. I regularly support high pressure testing, including proof, leak, and burst testing, ensuring systems meet strict safety and reliability requirements.
My engineering approach is grounded in hands on problem solving, technical rigor, and a strong commitment to safety and precision. I enjoy working at the intersection of design, testing, and system validation, where I can directly contribute to the performance and reliability of aerospace hardware.
Outside of work, I am based in Washington State and spend much of my time outdoors. Whether fishing, crabbing, or clamming, I value the connection to nature and the traditions passed down through my family. These experiences keep me grounded and continue to inspire my curiosity and work ethic.
