Designed and developed a batch process data visualization application used by a majority of the specialty chemical plants at Air Products. It provides historical data analytics, daily production supervision, and production schedule auditing and tracking.Developed distributed batch recipe management application for use with Siemens Simatic Batch recipe control software. This application and its benefits were presented at the 2015 Siemens users conference.Integrated an automated annunciation system with a Siemen's PCS7 control system to broadcast opeartor notifications over handheld radiosIntroduced many advanced process control strategies to the Los Angeles plant resulting in 30% plant capacity improvment in aggregateDiscovered, tested and implemented an alternative feed location on a continuous Surfynol reactor system resulting in a plant 20% capacity improvement from reduced cleaning.Pushed Air Products toward a microservices based architecture by developing many RESTful APIs for engineering data access.

Troubleshoots process related refinery problems in a supporting role to daily operations.Monitors unit data to provide operations with technical recommendations to improve safety, reliability and profitability of the refinery.Interface with contractors to provide necessary services to the refinery such as chemical treatments, equipment surveys, and capital improvements.Collaborates with catalyst suppliers to troubleshoot technical issues involving the transport and handling of catalyst.Utilizes process modeling and simulation software to evaluate changes to refinery operations and generate recommendations.Updates and improves the refinery linear program to better reflect physical limitations of equipment when used in crude oil selection. Monitors unit material balances to identify unaccounted losses and improve understanding of yields and profitability.

Collaborated in group efforts to develop ethanol and furfural resistant strains of Escherichia coli to better understand the molecular mechanisms involved.Collaborated with other undergraduate researchers and university professors in experimental design.Performed laboratory experimentation and data collection.Collaborated with group in data analysis and conclusions.
