I am currently a student enrolled in Northeastern University's School of Engineering. My area of specification is in mechanical engineering. I in my third year of a five year program at Notheastern University. During my time here I have completed a paid internship at ACE Energy/ Energy Curtailment Services, located in Buffalo New York, and a cooperative opertunity (paid internship) at Symmons Industries; located in Braintree Massachusetts. At ACE I worked both in the field and in the office, while in the field I performed lighting/energy audits, and headed meetings with prospective clients. While in the office I performed candlestick readings based upon floorplan blueprints, composed project proposals, and computed energy savings. At Symmons I was the manager of our product test lab where I was responisble for testing all Symmons products by standard testing specifications, I also completed several design projects, all of which required the use of the Solidworks and basic angular geometry and measurement. Most recently I have been working on a literary analysis entitled "Undulatory Locomotion as it is Occurs in Nature and its Application to Robotics", and I feel that several of its points can be turned into at least one successful article to be posted to Citizendium.
