Fire Risk Alliance (FRA) Internship

During my tenure at FRA, I adhered rigorously to the UL 9540A fire‐testing protocols to validate BESS safety. From constructing the test rig and installing the thermocouple network to executing controlled experiments and post-processing the data, I ensured that every step met the standard’s requirements. Delivering comprehensive results for our client. To explore the methodology and findings in greater detail, see below. 

At FRA, I led a one-of-a-kind project to design and fabricate a custom CNC enclosure complete with integrated cooling lines. I developed a system that seamlessly combined electronics with nozzles and pumps, ensuring the user interface/electronics and mechanical components operated in harmony. See below for more details. 

At FRA I was tasked with optimizing while reducing costs the collection side of a 4S system. Through this project numerous iterations of hardware and software integration with the pressure sensor were performed paired with the hands-on building of the system. In summary, costs were reduced by upwards of 80% per unit while providing an accuracy of +/- 0.25% error.
