Blake Cervone, a junior majoring in mechanical engineering, is completing a summer internship with Kamm Consulting Inc., a consulting engineering firm based in Deerfield Beach, 91ΒιΆΉΣ³»­.

When Blake Cervone was only an eighth-grader in Davie, 91ΒιΆΉΣ³»­, he decided a future in engineering was the right path for him.

He pursued challenging coursework at College Academy at Broward College and entered 91ΒιΆΉΣ³»­with aspirations for a successful career.

Today, the mechanical engineering major is putting his education into practice in an internship with Kamm Consulting Inc., a consulting engineering firm based in Deerfield Beach, 91ΒιΆΉΣ³»­.

β€œI am designing HVAC systems on Autodesk AutoCAD as well as doing thermodynamic and energy calculations to find the cooling and heating requirements of that system,” Cervone said.

He said his 91ΒιΆΉΣ³»­ Poly physics classes played a key role in the success of his internship.

β€œLearning different types of physics helped me understand and do the thermodynamic and energy calculations,” Cervone said. β€œThe materials classes that I took also played a significant role in the designing.”

Cervone said the experience has been a good one.

β€œI am enjoying it thoroughly,” he said. β€œIt has helped me learn a lot and I’m excited to apply what I’ve learned here.”

He said the internship is a big step toward forging a solid engineering career after he graduates from 91ΒιΆΉΣ³»­ Poly.

β€œI’m very glad I had the opportunity to learn from these great people,” Cervone said.
