Mechanical Engineer experienced in STEM Teaching

Hector A.

I am a Mechanical Engineer with a Bachelor's of Science Degree from the University of Texas at Arlington (GPA of 3) who was a recipient of the Joe R. Martin Engineering scholarship. I took extra courses in Control Systems (4), Microprocessors, Mechatronics and Composite Materials (taught by industry expert) for an unconventionally broad degree. I went on take Graduate courses in Mechanical Engineering at Arizona State University in Continuum Mechanics, Finite Element Method, and Vibrations (GPA of 3).
I went on to gain more than 30 years of professional experience in multiple industries, but especially semiconductors, microchips and computer systems. This work gained me many corporate awards for key contributions to: the first 1 GHz processor, the first dual-core processor, and the specific, low-power, small microprocessors that made the first Macbook Air laptops possible.
During this time, I crafted many different kinds of technical instruction for newly hired adult engineering employees. I also taught multiple, company-wide technical classes over 4 years to people from multiple countries. In addition, I also often mentored young engineers and college interns. What's more, I've volunteered time to teach high school and college students various subjects in mathematics, science, computer software, public speaking and leadership.
My approach is to understand the background and interests of those I’m teaching and present the new information in a context that shows its relevance and utility to their interests. I look forward to you reaching out to me through the platform and letting me know about your needs and goals so we can strategize how to get you what you need. Thank you.
