During the past few summers, Sean gained much of his experience in various engineering fields. Three summers ago, he worked at Ma-Joo Electrical Inc., located in Gwang-Ju, South Korea. As electrical engineering intern, he worked on drawing electrical circuits with AutoCAD, and supplying electrical materials to subcontractors. On the last summer, Sean participated in an internship with the Penn State Facilities Engineering Institute. Through this internship, he had several trips to PennDot County maintenance facilities for building assessment, and gathered information needed for the Revit 3D Model of the building. He also worked on lighting fixture schedule, and assisted supervisor in lighting/structural project by modeling in Revit.
