Materials Engineer with experience in the aerospace industry

About

My name is Ben Ertel. I am 24 years old with a B.S. in materials science engineering from RPI. I am currently in the process of obtaining new work after a contract position at Sikorsky as a Mass properties engineer was cut short due to layoffs. I have a strong desire to continue to learn or contribute to materials engineering whilst without a current occupation. I love to learn more about the subject and all the new avenues and technologies being created.
