  As a Sr. Sales Engineer at Teknic, Inc. I am responsible for generating new OEM prospects as well as acting as the main point of contact for technical support. I work directly with my OEM customers and their engineering team(s) to create system simulations and reports that relay pertinent data to the customer (such as reflected load inertia, inertia mismatches, system efficiency, torque/voltage requirements etc.) which is used to validate specific product recommendations. Once the customer approves of a given solution I will help with the integration of the Teknic components into their machine which typically includes: On-site tuning and configuration, application specific training on the products and their features, performing electrical/mechanical audits, and providing detailed, real-world performance documentation.

• Undergraduate Research Assistant

  • Sep 2007 - May 2009

  I assisted in the research and development of an algorithm used to detect and locate cancerous nodules in CT scans of a patient's lungs. More specifically, through the use of Matlab and several "test" CT scans (with known locations of malignant nodules, false-positives and false-negatives), I created and refined the Matlab algorithm to improve its efficacy in properly deciphering between benign and malignant lung nodules. I was also responsible for organizing weekly meetings with the head of the Radiation Oncology Research in which direction and overall progress of our research was reviewed. Show less
