Manage 5.3 Million USD per year of inventory and orders across the mill business units. Go above and beyond to grow company portfolio with the customer. Currently, through leadership was able to grow the account by $1.2 Million USD a year in Sales. Go above and beyond to lead process improvement projects and presented for approval by the customer. Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) savings reported and approved for over $4.2 Million USD from 2015-2019. Go above and beyond my responsibilities to capture new business opportunities. Available 24/7 to discuss issues and opportunities for Quaker Houghton.Acquired new business with the addition of SolvoClean TLS to customer portfolio to assist customer with highly demanding production need. This business is estimated to be worth $20,000/year in sales.Go above and beyond to respond inquiries from several departments including purchasing. Work on solving conflicts or resolutions with purchase requests, purchase orders, and pricing. Possesses a strong ability to establish excellent relationships with customers and key decision makers within the organization. Through true leadership Quaker Houghton has become one of the primary suppliers of customer for current and future products. Provide estimated applied cost of products and develop ideas to reduce consumption/waste and to improve performance.Monitor critical process variables such as concentration, conductivity, flow rates, consumption rates, and variation in temperatures.Acquire, record, and analyze process and usage data to establish baselines and track sales figures.Collect chemical samples and analyze performance. Samples are tested for concentration, alkalinity ratio, soil, and iron concentration for HDG chemicals. Emulsion testing is also performed to ensure production and high quality for products at the Cold Mill. Participate in weekly safety meetings and engage on new training opportunities to ensure a safe and healthy work environment.

*Scale up of hydrocyclone apparatus for solid-liquid separation Designed and performed experiments necessary for scale up of the apparatus. Performed sensitivity analysis to understand design parameters’ effects on efficiency. Determined design parameters and operating conditions to optimize separation efficiency. Consulted and worked closely with operators and lab technicians to collect and analyze samples for product characterization. Lead project team in developing project scopes, generating cost estimates $1M in Capital costs. *Six Sigma Project  Improved yield by 0.7% using Six Sigma methodology.
