Downstream Process DevelopmentCurrently working on the downstream process development for several AAV Gene Therapies. Daily activities can include many different processes from running Affinity and AEX Chromatography or TFF, UF, DF, Concentration and sometimes centrifugation. Other responsibilities include buffer prep, aliquoting samples, and everything else to keep the lab on track for our research teams needs as well as process development efforts.

Pharma Services Group - Viral Vector SciencesProcess Engineer focused on downstream processes for gene therapies in clinical trials. Most job responsibilities require a multi faceted team utilizing colleagues from MST, Automation, CQV, Manufacturing and Quality on any given day. This is a fast paced environment with exciting new science and tech coming through the door everyday.I've been given the opportunity to learn about several different downstream unit ops including clarification as well as several types of tangential filtration and chromatography. All the while gaining invaluable experience in Tech Transfers functioning as the Process Engineering lead for one of our clients.

Lead engineer for two batch process buildings, manufacturing 15 different organic peroxide products. Completed capital projects and aided in the commissioning of two products under the direction of the Process Technology Manager…• Developed our daily production reporting system to improve loss analysis, batch process (cycle time) analysis, and production analysis. The system has aided tremendously in our continuous improvement efforts. Built entirely in excel to automate our weekly, monthly and yearly reporting of OAU/OEE. T• Utilized engineering design and troubleshooting skills to reduce our loss time due to pack out equipment. This resulted in a reduced number of customer complaints.• Redesigned our filtration system, improved filter speeds significantly which freed up operators to divide and conquer work with improved automatic filtration.• Analyzed cycle times along with batch sizes and built a system for operators to track both metrics creating higher operator accountability and significant process improvement.

Worked directly under the Operations Director for A.R.T. performing data analysis on metrics received from the plants• Led a group of 17 interns which developed a plan to help our customers to recycle upwards of 200K MT of material a year• Investigated the logistics process and discovered 5 failure modes and developed solutions, owners and teams for each
