• Led successful mobilizations with Orange County Transportation Authority, a ~$70M contract with ~550 employees, and Valley Metro East Valley, a ~$100M contract with ~900 employees, resulting in strong positive feedback from the incumbent employees and the transit agencies• Managed Keolis's bid response to the over $600M Southern Nevada four-year fixed route bus contract, including pre-RFP preparations, stakeholder management, proposal writing, and pricing

• Managed Keolis's bid response to the over $600M Southern Nevada fixed route bus contract (four-year contract with no options to extend), including pre-RFP preparations, proposal writing, and pricing• Engaged with stakeholders within the Southern Nevadan community to identify upcoming transportation priorities• Performed a comprehensive zero-based analysis on the bid price to identify and prioritize cost-saving measures

Boston, Ma

• Led a team of five performance managers, data analysts, and project leads • Managed performance metrics to deliver results including the best quarterly on-time performance since Keolis began its contract (92.4% trains on time)• Designed and delivered a performance incentive regime, projected to earn $7M annually by exceeding expectations for on-time performance and by providing surplus capacity and crew assistance to passengers• Mitigated major risks to operational performance, including major capital projects, seasonal effects, installation of the Positive Train Control safety system, and the COVID-19 pandemic• Developed a fuel conservation initiative to save 5% - 10% of fuel in collaboration with the partnering transit authority (to be launched in Q1 2022)• Founded, designed, and managed the Innovation Intern program, which resulted in over $900K in savings from 17 MIT students’ projects across 3 years

Assisted the UPOP staff in coordinating and organizing career development events

• Constructed and finetuned an ozone generation chamber to test the effect of ozone on various materials• Performed over a dozen experiments using the ozone chamber to examine ozone's effects on skin and antioxidants• Determined ozone's effects on skin and antioxidant-containing products

Mclean, Va

• Devised techniques to assemble nanoscale optical indicator tags using Forster Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET) and microencapsulation• Experimented with energy transfer, microencapsulation, and nano-indicator coatings for electronics in the bionanotech laboratory• Investigated pressure-sensitive and thermal-sensitive microcapsule release mechanisms

• Researched methods to optimize scalability, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness in large-scale catalyst production. • Synthesized sol-gels with varying reagents to produce early transition metal carbides, a cheaper alternative to Group VIII-metal catalysts. • Devised a feasible, optimal, and scalable method for the production of early transitional metal carbide catalysts to be used in many applications, including alternative energy sources.

Demonstrated the increased solubility of Fatty Acid Methyl Ester biodiesel with gum buildup in fuel pipes of U.S. Navy ships.

Analyzed Gas Chromatograph-Flame Ionization Detector data to devise a method to prevent atmospheric oxygen gas from corrupting test samples over time.

Investigated the difference in flash point between JP-5 jet fuel and JP-8 jet fuel to determine a safe blend concentration for storage on U.S. Navy ships.
