Seeking entry level engineer/design/sales employment in Boulder, co
Quote | Reply
I studied mechanical engineering at The University of Vermont, where I picked up racing road bicycles. During my time there I developed from a novice to a nationally accredited athlete, culminating with winning the Collegiate Criterium National Championships my senior year. This success drove me to pursue road racing as the prime focus in my life, which has been both challenging and gratifying since my graduation.

I am now looking to take the next step in my life and further my skills, and have an interest in design engineering as well as any position to do with outdoor sports.
