Assigned to Strike Aircraft Test Directorate, Naval Air Test Center, Patuxent River, MD Supervised a diverse team of 35+ Aerospace, Mechanical & Electrical Engineers, Mathematicians, Scientists, Physicists, Statisticians, Software engineers, Pilots and Naval Flight Officers. GM- 1520 - 13 Mathematician (supervisory Mathematician, Physicist , Engineer). Responsible for managing U.S. Navy Ballistics analyses to determine aircraft embedded weapon trajectory modeling arame tears, conduct weapon delivery accuracy analyses, weapon fuze arming and aircraft safe escape data & analyses Responsible for managing branch workload including budgeting, funding, assignment of technical personnel, acceptance / rejection of projects, reviewing / editing / approving test plans & technical reports. Represented U.S. Navy Test Community on Joint Munitions Effectiveness Manuals (JMEM) Weapon Delivery Accuracy, System Characteristics and Weapon Fragmentation Working Groups. Multiple Outstanding Performance Ratings

* GS * 1520 * 7 through GS * 1520 * 9 Mathematician Developed software to calculate Total Flight Hours (FH), Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) & Mean Time To Repair (MTTR) for AV-8B and F/A-18 Aircraft during Full Scale Development (FSD) using pre-production (T&E) 3-M databases. Developed software to interface Pax River mainframes with small, office (DOS-based) computers to transfer raw Flight Hour Form and O & I * Level Maintenance Action Form (MAF) data, and perform FH, MTTR & MTBF reports Developed analytical (trend) applications software (e.g., FH vs. MTBF)

The U.S. Navy is comprised of more than 500,000 Sailors and civilians, nearly 300 ships and submarines, and more than 3,700 aircraft. Our Sailors serve on the water (aboard ships); under the water (aboard submarines); over the water (in planes and helicopters) and away from the water (ashore in the U.S. and around the world). What happens on the water affects us all. To understand the impact the U.S. Navy makes in our daily lives, think of the 70-80-90 rule. Seventy percent of the earth is covered by water, 80 percent of the earth's population lives near the ocean, and 90 percent of international trade travels by sea. The U.S. Navy meets threats far away, so those threats cannot harm our citizens at home. They protect and defend freedom around the world and also offer opportunities for a great career.
