I've spent a lot of time in these places...
JR Automation Internship
Summer 2024, Spring 2025
I completed a controls engineering internship as a part of my degree. I completed 2 of 3 semesters so far, completing over 500 hours each semesters. I worked with licensed engineers to help complete manufacturing lines using Fanuc Robots, Rockwell HMIs/PLCs, the Ignition Software for HMIs/SCADA, and some vision technology including Fanuc IR and Keyence.
Technology Showcase
Mary Idema Pew Library, Grand Valley State University September 2022 - November 2026
The technology showcase is a makerspace with 3D printing, laser cutting and VR located in the library. In this space I work with students, faculty and staff who need help with projects and research. I created a lot of projects to demonstrate the equipment and to fill the space. Engaging with the Grand Valley community and working with my boss Hunter Bridwell I have learned a ton about leadership, technology, and life.
Dunkin' Assistant Manager
Dunkin’ Donuts LLC, Jenison MI January 2022 - September 2022
I ran shifts, opened and closed the restaurant including cash flow. This job was a short period in my life but so much fun. I really enjoyed my coworkers and the work environment that I found there.
Little Caesars Assistant Manager
Little Caesars LLC, Grand Rapids MI July 2020 - September 2021
Little Caesars was my first job as a 16 year old. I enjoyed the hard work and after 6 months I became an assistant manager in charge of running shifts, cash flow, and inventory. I was sent around to 10 differant location in the GR area. Being so young and running shifts in charge of people who are differant and older than me was hard. I can't recomend this experience but I feel lucky to have learned so much so early.
Grand Valley State University
Fall 2022-Present GPA: 2.92
Grand Valley State University is a school where I'm proud to be a student. I have learned so much already through my amazing faculty and staff and I'm really excited to finish my computer engineering degree over the next couple years.
Jenison High School
Graduated 5/26/2022 GPA: 3.85
I am a proud alumni. Jenison Public Schools is simply excellent. I had really talented and invested teachers, a life changing Cross Country and Track coach, and a nationally recognized marching band director. I have made memories at this place that will last a lifetime and learned skills that prepared me for the real world.
