McLaren Engineering Group

In the Summer of 2018, I was the Mechanical Engineering intern for the Entertainment department at McLaren Engineering Group. In this position, I did mechanical and structural analysis for elements in live entertainment, produced hand calculation checks for show elements and theater renovations, reviewed contracts and testing standards, and acted as support in 3D drafting and RISA3D analysis. In summary, over the course of 3 months I worked with 11 engineers on 15 projects, learned 2 software packages, and was introduced to 2 new construction and safety standards.

Electronic Theatre Controls

In the Summer of 2016, I was the Mechanical Engineering intern for the Architecture and Dimming department at ETC. I designed and constructed new features, test rigs, and fixtures for several projects during my time there. Attached to the left is a sample of the drafting I completed for these projects. It includes a button design and an assembly map of a test rig I created for large PCB boards.

Machine Design Analysis

In addition to the engineering work I am completing through employment, I am also doing a considerable amount of analysis for systems of machines in school. A few examples of the extensive analysis I've completed can be reached from the linked photo to the left.
