- Student ambassador for the Department of Industrial Engineering.- Represent the department to prospective students and assist current students with class scheduling.- STEM outreach to high schools and middle schools.

Durham, NC, US

• Wrote custom software applications for engineers/operators in the Wolfspeed semiconductor division that develops SiC Power and RF products.
• Used VB.net and SQL to create a user interface application to set custom engineering holds on wafer lots in the fabrication lab.
• Future holds application significantly improved the process of editing and searching for lot information, speeding up the hold releasing process and decreasing engineering man hours.
• Conducted time studies on tool usage to lower WIP in queue for bottleneck fabrication machines.

Davidson, North Carolina, US

• Engineer in the Surface Technologies division providing shot peening solutions for airplane parts.
• Resurrected and redesigned obsolete spectrometer that maximizes shot peening efficiency.
• Spectrometer uses blue light frequency to determine whether gears have undergone shot peening, saving significant man hours that would be used to manually perform this task.
• Designed 3D printed molds used to create polyurethane masks for shot peening.

Coopersburg, PA, US

• Intern in the New Products Operations division of Lutron’s Supply Chain department
• Built Excel based destination facility exploration tool used to determine which manufacturing facility new products should be sent based on matching characteristics of the product and the facility.
• Destination facility exploration tool allows for comprehensive decision making that prevents a rapid buildup of WIP in high volume facilities and a starvation of WIP at other facilities.
