Amy Hussey’s Summary

Experience:
I worked on the 2010 Camero steering Column at Delphi Steering in the GM Car Group. I was responsible for the change management as well as assisting the lead engineers in design changes and cost savings.

I worked at Dow Automotive as a co-op for 4 years making and testing auto glass adhesives. My thesis was theoretical and covered testing methods.

Goals:
I wish to use my Product Engineering experience as well as my plastics product design education to further safety and cost reducing designs in an expanding field.

Amy Hussey’s Specialties:

Plastics Product Design, I'deas/Moldflow, Matlab/Simulink, Microsoft Office, Ubuntu Linux, Linux, Product Design, cooperation between functional groups
