Responsible for automation and digital platform product line strategy supporting market-leading unconventionals hydraulic fracturing businessManage controls, automation, and digital product portfolio, including identifying needs for new product development. Provide support to operations for product portfolio, including voice of customer activities for new product and sustaining initiatives. Ensure alignment between business line strategy, product roadmap, and technology priorities.

Created comprehensive field trial plan for diversion application in support of multi-million dollar fiber optic project.Developed unified database in support of fiber optic-focused new product development, accelerating development team’s efforts, substantially reducing non productive time, and providing insights to management to help guide strategic direction.Led project team in delivery of improvement for engineered diversion tool. Worked with product management to communicate value of tool to business development team and assess best placement of new service in the market.

Technical lead on projects that integrate data-driven models and automation to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of existing and new chemical products in PE's portfolio.

Drove effort to deliver major diversion application tool 6 months ahead of schedule in response to changing market conditions. Managed Voice of Customer (VOC) activities in support of major R&D project. Recommended reductions in project scope leading to a 50% acceleration to project delivery as compared to prior efforts.Managed team of 5 professionals on nodal analysis project. Owned development end-to-end, including technical delivery and product design and specifications.

Planned and executed project towards development of high end computational fluid dynamics (CFD) research code for commercial aerospace applications.Created and delivered presentations to potential customers to communicate value of firm’s R&D capabilities.

Evaluation of commercial lattice-Boltzman solver for the use of analyzing internal fluid mechanics and heat transfer.

MEEN 357 - Numerical Analysis (~40 students)Use of common numerical algorithms, such as root finding and optimization, as applied to real-world engineering problems by using MATLABENGR 112 - Foundations of Engineering II (~60 students)Students learn programming through LabVIEW and apply it to the design of a robotic car.

Summer InternshipsFuels South - 2007ExxonMobil Research and Engineering (EMRE) - 2008Offsites and Utilities - 2009Evaluated economic feasibility of installing heat exchanger for purposes of reducing HVAC costs. Combined weather forecasts with operating, capital costs and made go/no-go recommendation to management. Created and presented graphical representation of large furnace thermocouple dataset, allowing operators to more easily locate extreme temperatures and take corrective actions as appropriate. Performed research on a variety of heat exchanger maintenance methods. Worked with various stakeholders to put comprehensive report together and delivered to management along with team recommendations.
