· Developed government software on a team to be used by Wright-Patterson Air Force Base
· Completed relevant training and practice in a niche programming language (Pega) in order to obtain certification

· Instructed first-year engineering students on topics including LabView, Python, Statistics, etc. while encouraging an atmosphere of teamwork and acting as a peer mentor to assimilate students to college life
· Received an official award for being a “Top Facilitator”

· Led a project to update Hazard and Process labels/statements for all finished goods in North America through multiple customers to satisfy new GHS regulations
· Integrated new products from BASF agriculture portfolio into a coherent Product Selector tool to facilitate purchasing for future customers

· Led a project to execute a new process to replace our previously inefficient caustic system
· Optimized production systems by enabling the implementation of new pipelines, specifically for biocide(s)
· Created and updated P&IDs for site utilities, such as for plant air and steam & condensate
· Prepared for Audits by conducting mechanical integrity reports, MOCs, and PSV calculations/replacements
· Conducted extensive performance testing/research as part of a Green Belt initiative to deduce an appropriate strategy for milling colorants
· Received two informal awards from management for outstanding performance

· Prepared pre-formulated laboratory chemical blends and assisted in the re-formulation of said blends
