Objective
Obtain a position allowing me to use and expand my skills in the field of marine engineering.
Experience
After graduating I held an internship position with Marine Design & Operations Inc. in Kenilworth, NJ. As a junior marine engineer I assisted with a mooring analysis using OPTIMOOR software for MARAD’s reserve fleet. This included an on-site ship surveying in Beaumont Texas. Other projects included an anchor pull-out strength test, revision of reviewed CAD drawings, and the updating of trim & stability booklets.
In January 2011, I was hired by CSC in Boston, MA. I worked with a team of engineers on the Service Life Extension Program (SLEP) of the US Navy’s large fleet of LCAC hovercrafts. My responsibilities included management and revision of technical manuals, drawings, and test procedures. In addition I updated CAD drawings to reflect current system configurations, and created new drawings and documents. I also helped perform craft structural and corrosion inspections on the LCAC fleet at Camp Pendleton, CA.
I decided to leave CSC in April 2012. I found myself presented with a unique opportunity to take an ESL teaching position at Eastern College of Technology in Chonburi, Thailand. I taught approximately 1,200 students a week, including engineering, electrical and business students. I was completely responsible for the design of the curriculum, and evaluated all my students myself, which required a large amount of adaptability and patience.
