About
Mechanical Engineer with experience in mechanical systems design, equipment integration, and fabrication-focused engineering. My work includes developing P&IDs, selecting and sizing mechanical components, coordinating 3D equipment layouts and fabrication drawings, reviewing technical specifications, and supporting projects from initial design through manufacturing.
I enjoy turning technical requirements and concepts into practical, buildable solutions and am comfortable working across mechanical, process, and manufacturing disciplines.

Design and support custom biogas upgrading and gas conditioning systems from initial project requirements through fabrication and startup. Responsibilities include:
* Develop and review P&IDs and mechanical system designs
* Review client specifications and translate project requirements into practical design solutions
* Select and size mechanical equipment, valves, instrumentation, piping components, and other system components
* Coordinate with CAD designers on 3D equipment layouts, skid design, piping arrangements, and fabrication drawings
* Review drawings for design accuracy, manufacturability, accessibility, and compliance with project requirements
* Prepare technical submittals, equipment documentation, and project-specific engineering information
* Work directly with fabrication and assembly teams to resolve design and manufacturing issues
* Support equipment installation, commissioning, and startup questions
* Coordinate with vendors, customers, engineers, designers, and manufacturing personnel throughout the project lifecycle
Experience includes compressors, blowers, heat exchangers, pressure vessels, gas drying/conditioning equipment, valves, piping, and instrumentation used in industrial gas systems.

University Of Wisconsin - Platteville
Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering - Biomedical Engineering Emphasis
2019 – 2025
Activities and Societies:
Society of Women Engineers (SWE)
Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering with a Biomedical Engineering emphasis. Completed the degree while working full-time, developing a strong foundation in mechanical design, engineering analysis, manufacturing, and problem-solving.
Senior design work focused on the development of custom 3D-printed prosthetic hind legs for a bilateral amputee cat, incorporating 3D CAD modeling, additive manufacturing, prototyping, and iterative design.
Other experience
-
Senior Design Project
Designed and 3D printed custom prosthetic hind legs for a cat with bilateral hind-limb amputations as part of a senior mechanical engineering design project with a biomedical engineering focus.
* Developed custom 3D CAD models based on the cat's anatomy, dimensions, and functional requirements
* Designed components with consideration for fit, mobility, weight, comfort, and manufacturability
* Created physical prototypes using additive manufacturing/3D printing
* Iterated designs based on fit, function, and testing
* Applied mechanical design principles to a unique biomedical engineering problem
* Collaborated with a multidisciplinary project team throughout the design and development process
The project combined mechanical design, biomedical engineering, rapid prototyping, and additive manufacturing to develop a highly customized solution for an unusual real-world application.
