System Engineer at Boeing

About

In my career I have been both an engineer and a teacher, and I have enjoyed both. Although they seem like different careers, they share many similarities. As an engineer I have participated in and led teams in order to reach a common goal. I have also prepared and presented technical briefings to colleagues, management and customers. Engineering, as well as teaching, requires excellent oral and written communication skills, technical knowledge, and the ability to work with a diverse group of people. My goal is to resume my career as a full-time engineer or teacher, and utilize my skills and experience that I have developed in both careers.
