Below, I have assembled some information in regards to the research and work that I have been conducting in the various fields of Mechanical, Electrical, Subtractive & Additive Engineering. Throughout 2016 I will present additional material; any feedback is sincerely appreciated.
Introduction
Most of my engineering internships started when I was at the age of 14 and have continued to my current age of 36. For the past 16 years, I have spent an extensive amount of time to become an industry recognized expert in core storage, connectivity and virtualization performance engineering. Our industry toolsets are ever changing which enables endless possibilities. My overall goal has been to combine different areas of engineering to create a very large toolset to solve very complex problems. I have always been fascinated with the Nasa Saturn V and Rocketdyne F-1 programs and studied them intensely. These programs are both key examples in reference to highly specific engineering disciplines coming together to solve very complex problems. These men and women reached beyond the unthinkable with slide rulers and very primitive computing systems. Technology has expanded our toolsets to the point of endless possibilities.
I have studied and researched on many areas in relation to mechanical, electrical engineering and industrial design to rethink the design of a product, how it integrates with its environment and it's process. My area of focus has been to tie in high speed storage, high speed networking and high speed computing coupled with all of the elements in reference to rapid prototyping (CAD, CAM, CNC, 3D Scanning, 3D Printing, PCB Layout, etc.).
Coupling together complimentary and non-complimentary technologies to solve some of the most complex problems is what drives me.
