and implement it into production.
● Involved in installation of laser robotic system on base – process cost savings $2-$5million/year (F16/C130).
● Cut down aircraft de-paint prep from 300+hrs to 6hrs for F16. Cut flow days by 30%(F-16) and 50%(C-130).
● Represented Hill AFB leadership by professionally conducting technical tours/briefings for 3-star Generals,
Colonels, Politicians, company VPs/Presidents, and various International Entities presenting this new technology.
● Created/implemented entire process from ground-up for Laser Robotic De-Paint.
● Designed operator pre/post shift checklist to ensure aircraft safety and proper operation.
● Incorporated software improvements with contractors to optimize and streamline the laser de-paint system.
● 3D drafted official tools for laser de-paint process (SolidWorks)
● Presented Laser Robotic System at the SAE 2014 International Aerospace Manufacturing Conference
● Conducted 1st initial training of operators on laser de-painting an F-16.
● Worked with Center Test Authority to develop & conduct a 3-phase test plan to qualify the system.
● Collaborated with contractor & base training departments to develop a training plan for future operators.
● Spearhead cooperation with Quality, Safety, and Bio to demonstrate process improvement efforts for the
implementation of a high-pressure water system to remove skid tape on C-130s.
●VPP/OSHA safety driven – designed/installed various critical safety upgrades to C-130 stands – 0 reported falls
since implementation.
● Designed and manufactured a Leverage Bar to support maintenance for A-10 weapon system.
