About
I have more than 15 years of experience in the field of aerospace. I have worked numerous different angles of the industry; aircraft/airline reliability and operations, space flight hardware development, real-time space flight mission support, space flight vehicle operations and safety, space training hardware development, as well as petro-chemical emergency management training. I have direct experience working both in NASA’s Neutral Buoyancy Laboratory and Space Vehicle Mockup Facility for the past nine years as the Systems Safety Engineer/Manager. I also have been continuing my education in safety and engineering, both by job required training as well as masters level courses at the University of Houston Clear Lake. I hope to complete my first of two master’s degree this December. The continued learning shows my commitment to personal and professional excellence in regards to safety and engineering in the aerospace industry.
I am also currently working towards my Certified Safety Professional (CSP) and Certified Reliability Engineer (CRE).
