Sydney Hamilton SYDNEY HAMILTON THE BOEING COMPANY [email protected] @SeeSydSoar SPACE AND LAUNCH VEHICLES @SeeSydSoar @sydney.hamil10 STRUCTURAL DESIGN ENGINEER in linkedin.com/in/sydneyhamil10 EL SEGUNDO, CA IfThenCollection.org/Sydney PERSONAL STATEMENT Hi, my name is Sydney Hamilton and since I was a little girl, I’ve always wanted to fly. Literally. I would stand outside with my left foot positioned directly adjacent to my right foot, a blanket tied at my neck, and my arms straight out. Once in the ready position, I would try to take off! My mom would come out after about 30 minutes and encourage me to fly another way. She would suggest a Jet Pack, an airplane or even a rocketship! “No mom, I want to fly!” I replied confused as to what she didn’t understand. Not once did my parents tell me I couldn’t fly. So, it is no surprise that I work for the Boeing Company today. The work I do excites me every day and I’m eager to see what the future of aviation brings. Additive manufacturing aka 3D Printing is changing so many industries. Being on an advance design team has open my eyes to new technology, innovation in design, and shown me a small breath of the world of opportunity in aerospace engineering. I have always dreamed of being able to fly… and now, at Boeing, I do. Just differently than I originally, I imagined. Innovation is taking a dream and making it into a reality. Together, we can innovate to make dreams continue to come true. BIOGRAPHY Rising Technology Star Award Winner, Sydney Hamilton, has been featured on CBS, in Marie Claire Magazine, on GoldieBlox and across The Boeing Company for her innovative contributions to the aerospace industry. She was also selected to be an IF/THEN Ambassador for the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) to inspire youth to pursue STEM fields. As a Mechanical Design Engineer at Boeing in El Segundo, CA, Sydney leads a cross-functional team in the development of Satellite Reflectors. Reflectors are critical mechanisms in global satellite arrays that redirect radio frequencies (like your GPS!) to desired areas. Throughout Sydney’s career, she has had the opportunity to design 3D-printed satellite parts, deliver structural repairs to Boeing’s fleet of 767 and 777 airplanes, and design and analyze for the 777 floor Redesign effort as well as the 777X Folding Wing-Tip. A passionate advocate for recognizing the power within diversity, Sydney founded Boeing Generations 2 Generations employee resource group dedicated to improving workplace culture across the company’s rich, multi-generational talent pool. → ifthenshecan.org | 1 of 2 SYDNEY HAMILTON THE BOEING COMPANY, SPACE AND LAUNCH VEHICLES - ADVANCED STRUCTURAL DESIGN ENGINEER | EL SEGUNDO, CA | IfThenCollection.org/Sydney Sydney brings her passion for STEM education out into her community through her partnership with the non-profit organization, Dramatic Results.

The facility is located in Sydney’s suburb of Homebush, in the middle of the Olympic Park of the Australian city. When it was inaugurated, due to its 110,000 seats, it immediately conquered the “largest Olympic stadium in the world” title and at the same time it is the largest in Australia. The structure was designed and built with the intent of respecting demanding environmental conditions: compared to other Olympic stadiums (Athens and Beijing), as an example, less steel was used. The construction was started in September 1996 and completed just two and a half years later: on March 6, 1999, Sydney’s Olympic Stadium saw its first sport event: two rugby13 matches watched by 104,583 spectators. From October 2001 to October 2003, Stadium Australia was refurbished to make it the only stadium in the world capable of hosting five different professional sports: Rugby13 league, Rugby15 (Union), Australian Football, Soccer and Cricket.

  • Stadium Australia
    Final Business Case Summary Stadium Australia September 2019 September 2019 About this report This document summarises the Final Business Case (Business Case) for the redevelopment of Stadium Australia. The stadium, located within Sydney Olympic Park, has 83,600 seats and was constructed as the main venue for the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games. The intent of the project is to redevelop the existing stadium into a permanent rectangular venue with 70,000 seats. This reconfiguration will move seats closer to the field of play and update the stadium to contemporary standards. The Business Case for the redevelopment of Stadium Australia was developed between September 2018 and March 2019, and was considered by the NSW Government in August 2019 following Gateway reviews and a peer review by the Centre for International Economics. Strategic context Stadium Australia is culturally and economically important Stadium Australia was the focus of the 2000 Sydney Olympics and is culturally important to the residents of Sydney and to Australians more broadly. The Stadium is also economically important and plays a significant role in NSW’s major event strategy. It hosts key national sporting events and attracts blockbuster international sport and entertainment. Events hosted at Stadium Australia create economic activity through ticket sales, television and broadcast rights, advertising, sponsorship and the sale of merchandise. This boosts the economy by contributing directly to output, to Gross Domestic Product and by providing employment opportunities for the local community. Sporting and entertainment events, particularly major events, also increase intrastate, interstate and international tourism. Events can attract visitors to NSW, and this promotes activity in tourism- related industries such as accommodation, cafes and restaurants, retail and transport.

It’s a gateway to Sydney, yet dissected by transport arteries. It’s where the city meets the harbour, yet you can’t touch the water. With innovation and partnership between public and private interests, these and other improvements to the Quay can be realised - creating Australia’s iconic waterfront of the world. 4 CIRCULAR QUAY PUBLIC DOMAIN MANUAL 1.

  • Sydney Olympic Park
    THESIS PROJECT SYDNEY OLYMPIC PARK OLYMPIC LEGACY OR BURDEN BY BEN JAMES 2007 AN UNDERGRADUATE THESIS SUBMITTED AS A PARTIAL REQUIREMENT FOR THE BACHELOR OF PLANNING DEGREE, UNIVERSITY OF NEW SOUTH WALES 2007 ABSTRACT ‘The best Olympic Games ever’ are the words that Olympic organising committees around the world want to hear after they have hosted the Olympic Games. This title can only be held by one host city, and the current holder is Sydney. However, like many host cities in the past, infrastructure built for the Games has not had much of a post-games life. Due to this lack of post-games use, the main Olympic site at Homebush is perceived as a burden on Sydney rather than the unambiguous positive legacy envisaged. Sydney Olympic Park has even been described as a ‘white elephant’. This thesis will look at how the site as a whole has functioned since the Games, with particular reference to underutilisation of the two main stadiums. The potential of the 2002 master plan to inject new uses and vitality into the site is considered. The thesis provides a series of best practice guidelines that could be used by future hosts of similar mega-events to ensure that Games-related infrastructure does not become a burden on the host city. I ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would firstly like to thank Peter Williams, who as my thesis advisor provided me with the guidance and assistance that was required for me to complete my thesis. I secondly would like to thank Ellie for her assistance in the reading and formatting of my thesis, as well as her continued support throughout the thesis project.
