At KN I am responsible for producing and improving upon metrics for over 15 presentations that are distributed monthly to KN's clients and service providers of the client. Throughout my time at KN I have focused on continuous improvement in regards to the processes I go through on a weekly, monthly, or quarterly basis to reproduce the metrics I am responsible for. In doing this, I have automated processes through both the use of Excel Macros and Tableau Dashboards. These improvements both reduced the time spent doing these tasks and the potential for errors caused by the manual effort. In addition to the standard metrics I was responsible for producing on a regular basis, I also identify problem areas that the client was experiencing and create AdHoc analyses digging into these problems and providing more visibility to the client so that they can develop a plan for improvement.

As an intern for Johnson Controls, I supported the Materials Department in day-to-day operations as well as through specific data analytics projects. I created several reusable Excel templates to calculate real lead times and to perform an ABC analysis on inventory. Since the plant doesn't have an MRP system in place at this point, my data projects were geared towards providing accurate data for the MRP to use. In addition to data analytics, another project I worked on was designing a new warehouse layout. This layout was put into place to provide a more efficient material flow as well as accommodate a new product introduction.

At Harriss and Covington, I was in charge of maintaining and organizing yarn inventory. Also, I conducted an efficiency study of the yarn collection process where I was to observe yarn collection and make improvements to the process. In this job, I was to coordinate about 15 outgoing shipments of yarn to other knitting companies. Doing this job, I learned more about business processes and inventory systems.

In this position, I assisted in packaging department operations. I separated and organized incoming shipments from suppliers and kept the floor restocked. I reduced the downtime on the labeling machine by maintaining inventory levels and streamlining the process. Data entry into the company software program was also another task I performed. This position allowed me to learn a lot about manufacturing and business processes.
