Hello, my name is Dillon - it's nice to meet you! I am an engineer with experience in electromechanical design, software, and construction. I graduated from Northeastern University with a bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering and Physics in 2026. I am currently working at ACK Marine as a field engineer. I started down the path of engineering and physics because I have always enjoyed math and problem solving. I especially love doing hands-on work, whether that be rapid prototyping mechanical projects or soldering my own circuit designs.

Work History

I am currently working at ACK Marine & General Contracting. As a field engineer, I ensure work is completed according to the site plans and design solutions to the gaps left therein. I also assist in the construction directly, using a total station to provide accurate layout to the crew and working with vendors to coordinate material purchasing/delivery to the job site.

In the spring of 2025, I worked at the Naval Nuclear Laboratory in the capital district. There I wrote reactor servicing procedures and height tolerance analyses. This gave me a lot of valuable experience in GD&T, especially as it relates to interpretting older schematic/drawing documents.

In the spring of 2024, I worked for six months as an electro-mechanical engineering co-op at Clarapath, a medical robotics start up. There I was able to refine my skills in 3d printing, machining, electrical engineering, and mechanical design. Before that I volunteered at Boston Building Resources, a hardware store which recycles used building materials to make home improvement more affordable for the average family.

Outside of my career I enjoy hiking, reading, and programming. In fact, this whole website was made by me (down to the HTML/CSS itself) without the assistance of external website building software. I am generally the most comfortable working with python, though I have some experience writing in lower level languages (C++ mostly). I enjoy doing programming puzzles - for example, right now I am working through the 2015 advent of code (a collection of coding challenges), which I have included as an image to the left.

Regarding the outdoors, I enjoy hiking trails around me in the northeast. I particularly enjoy the Adirondacks in New York, and wherever I can do a day trip to from Boston. My favorite park of all is the Sylvan Glen Preserve by Mohegan Lake.
