- Business operations leadership development program (BOLD)- Lead cross functional project outsourcing PCBA (50+) to China, moved to Malaysia due to tariff cost increase. Responsible for inventory during transition (burn down and switch), quality, BOM changes and inventory obsolescence.- $12.7M annual spend. $2.35M of on hand inventory reduced to $1.4M (40% reduction).

- Led a cross-functional team of 8 that developed an online website/dashboard- Dashboard identified $35 million in logistical cost for one of GM's assembly plants- Project can simply be scaled to 17 other assembly plants and 30 component plants- Times savings of 50% - from 2 weeks per plant down to 1 week for one associate

-Self-taught engineering GDNT standards-Developed standard work and production cell layout for previously undocumented process -Improved quality 20% first pass yield to 100% first pass yield -Process speed improved by a factor of 5. From 5 a week to 5 a day

Working under Barbara Schneider. - Received first-place award for Undergraduate Research (UURAF).- Identified and responded to gap in process for counterpart in Finland, traveled to Finland with a week notice and resolved issue in 4 days that was crucial to the success at Michigan State. - Developed new process to program and upload technology resulting in 80% reduction of programming.- Generated 60% cost savings for technology providing relief for highly constrained budget.

- Saved Buyer 2.25 hours a day by reducing lead time by up to 90 days on over 150 parts- Identified reduction of average on-hand inventory by $116K with supplier agreements - Developed process for inventory accuracy which eliminated line-down risk and removed work around process that risked poor quality products- Removed $306K committed dollars to supplier with no effect to allocated parts from supplier

- Identified and automated 11 manual processes using VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) saving over 6000 hours of associate time (over $80,000) annually. Needed to understand/observe each manual process to create a unique solution.- Created ROI template for the purpose of prioritizing projects and/or quantifying the effectiveness of the project. It helps simplify and streamline inputs so a consistent calculation can be made.
