With the growth from 10 member classes to classes nearing 30, we are experiencing many of the challenges that early stage companies face. I have helped us overcome several obstacles related to recruiting additional top-tier candidates as Rose-Hulman’s recruiting coordinator. Furthermore, as the peer elected Fellow Development Champion I have planned several executive style retreats for 50 members, hosted a 10 week speaking seminar with Indiana’s top technology executives, and helped clear the path for institutionalizing many of the wonderful offerings the Fellowship provides by meeting with several board members on multiple occasions to discuss how to sustainably grow the Fellowship.

My responsibility for the summer was specifically related to the two fluid bed dryers (coaters) for a bead coating process. My project was to create a moisture accumulation model using existing instrumentation, material balances, and other first principle equations that relate temperature, pressure, and other process variables to the mass of moisture entering the coater. After completing the model, it is utilized in combination with historical data to create a performance baseline. Once the baseline has been created, control limits and associated automated alarms will be established to provide real-time moisture tracking which will increase overall coating performance evaluation. The ultimate goal is to prevent the coaters from running too dry (spray drying) or too wet (agglomerating), either of which causes coating performance issues leading to a reduction in productivity and, on occasion, the loss of an entire batch.

During my 2008 summer internship at Rolls-Royce I had the unique opportunity to work on the engine platform that supports the V-22 Osprey, the tilt rotor US military helicopter. I worked as a data manager and reduced the backlog of Field Service Reports (FSR). Each time a part is removed or installed on an engine it should be properly documented and reported using FSR's. Doing this allows the tracking of accumulated hours on each part.

I worked as a data manager and reduced the backlog of Field Service Reports (FSR). Each time a part is removed or installed on an engine it should be properly documented and reported using FSR's. Doing this allows the tracking of accumulated hours on each part. I managed to reduce a rather difficult component from 75 to 24 FSR's during my internship. Another one of my projects was for my manager's Six Sigma Green Belt. I was to capture the needs of the military onto one lean Alternate Parts List. This project gave me exposure to to Six Sigma practice and this project was presented to the United States Air Force and Marines at the FY10 Organized Parts List conference in Fort Walton Beach, FL. Lastly, I also had the opportunity to become Six Sigma Green Belt Certified during my time at Rolls-Royce. I completed my classwork through MoreSteam University and completed my project under the supervision of a Master Black Belt and a Black Belt Mentor. I reduced unnecessary fields pertaining to a Customer Satisfaction Index. This project allowed me to hone my statistical six sigma practice while also gaining vital skills such as organizing and leading meetings with platform managers, multitasking on several concurrent projects, and completing required training in a tight time frame.
