Designed, implemented, and performed a large number of experiments to collect material property data using various laboratory equipment and material analyzers. Performed statistical analyses to build a correlation between a material property and optimal mold pressure to improve new material molding efficiency and quality while reducing waste. Generated reports detailing all important findings. Communicated findings effectively to the team each week and produced physical deliverables to ensure the project can be continued.

Developed, led, and performed a set of inquiry-based experiments to determine if a novel membrane separation technology could be used to meet customer needs and propel the company into adjacent markets, one of the newly established goal tree objectives. Collaborated with multiple inter-disciplinary teams to maximize product performance, quality, and safety, while confirming the chemical and physical fundamental theories behind the products the company sold and those currently being developed and tested. Authored a Technical Report detailing completed experiments and analyses of the results. The report was published on the company’s database at the end of the summer term.

Aided in the design of new products and testing for those products per customer, company, and governmental (EPA) requirements.Determined failure modes of current products, then designed and evaluated potential solutions to those failures.Performed inspections of competitor products to discover cost-saving opportunities while increasing the quality of the company’s versions of those products to increase market share.Designed, performed, analyzed, and presented the results from a set of experiments to investigate customer concerns and provide reassurance to the customer backed by trustworthy data and statistical analysis methods.
