-Executed capital projects worth $300K, enabling continuous monitoring and reducing operator intervention.-Designed a utility and key performance indicator dashboard for three production plants on site.

-Planned and initiated risk mitigation safety-driven projects for handling of highly flammable fluids.

-Created site report using EXCEL VBA and an SQL Query that consolidated all critical data into one sheet. -Drafted prerequisite procedures necessary for the site’s effort toward FDA certification.

- Defined more efficient process specifications for an industrial scrubber that led to an annual savings of $64,000.- Supported Lean Six Sigma project that improved the pulp mill washing performance leading to annual savings of $1.3M.

- Completed federally required environmental reports for the site, including Tier II, Toxic Release Inventory, and Continuous Emissions Release reports.
