Ivan Garcia has been with TSGI since June of 2014 as a designer. Some of his daily duties include but are not limited to, developing system and structural designs and/or modifications for various contracts for vessels for which the company has been contracted. He is also involved in physical surveys on new and existing vessels. Ivan obtained his certificate in mechanical engineering in 2013 and is continuing to pursue his associate’s degree in mechanical engineering with an expected completion date of December 2015.

Alex Ediger has been with TSGI since September of 2014 as a naval architect and marine engineer. Alex is involved in developing structural and system designs for marine equipment in compliance with regulatory requirements.

Prior to joining the TSGI team, Alex was a graduate student instructor for NAVARCH 270 at the University of Michigan where he led laboratory experiments and gave lectures and received his master’s in naval architecture and marine engineering in 2014. During his studies at the University of Michigan, Alex interned with The Shearer Group, Inc., and we are very happy to have him back. In his spare time he enjoys sailing/yacht racing and working on powerboats/sailboats.
