OBJECTIVE: I would like to achieve a job status that would not only be challenging, but rewarding
as well.  A work environment that is up to date and ready for what ideas I may have.


QUALIFICATIONS
I have worked in the automotive testing field for three years.  In that period of time I have assessed 
many skills.  I have worked on projects with co-workers and also performed many tests on my
own.  I consider myself a great team player and I enjoy taking control of the situation.  My strong
electrical and mechanical backgrounds give me a deep understanding of how a lot of equipment
and testing is ran.  I am a quick learner and can adapt myself to most any environment I am put in. 
The bottom line is I care about the product that our fellow man will see, and I want it to be nothing
but the best.  I will strive for perfection and never sacrifice quality for a job hastily done. 

EDUCATION
June 1996 General Diploma, Clarkston Senior High
1996-1998 Assoc. Applied Science in Electrical Engineering, ITT Technical Institute


EMPLOYMENT
Sep 2000 - Present     Experimental Test Technician, Dana Fluid Systems
Here at Dana I have acquired many skills.  When I was first hired I was responsible for all the Salt Spray testing.  I was then promoted to working on Vibration and other various testing before ultimately working in the Brake group.  In the Brake group I learned how to use a wide variety of equipment including: Front End Simulators, Dynamic Ozone Machine, High Pressure Impulse, Computer Controlled Burst Stand, Whip Testers, Volumetric Expansion, various Tensile Machines, and a number of Thermal Chambers.  I also gained knowledge using Daisy Lab software for data acquisition.

Sep 1998- Sep 2000   Experimental Test Technician, G.M. Truck Production Center
I was responsible for a wide variety of jobs while employed at GM.  The first few months I was hired in, I was assisting in the Full Vehicle Cooling Tests.  The testing involved placing many thermocouples throughout the engine and cooling system.  I gained a great deal of knowledge working the control panel running the Dynamometer and reading all the cooling system readouts.  I was later released into the rest of the Dynamometer testing.  I was responsible for running Driveline tests, Pedal tests, Tramp tests, Seat Pulls, and a variety of other Component testing which included the use of MTS Servo Hydraulics and the Megadac Data System with TCS Plus software.  The job experience working with many different people and engineers helped mold my views of how modern engineering works. 

PHILOSOPHY

I believe that hard work and determination are the keys to success in the job market today.  I strive each day to do my best and to better myself through learning new skills and teaching others what I have learned.
