2006)
On-Site Area Production Engineering Co-op (Hopewell, VA)
Assignment: Investigate long-term issues with production and to improve
production monitoring and analysis.
Delivered: Troubleshooting process and designing and programming automation.
o Diagnosed difficult production/process issues and monitored for problems in
present operation by analyzing data from Provox system; presented results of this
in reports.
o Performed extensive field work, including daily inspections and measurements,
for maintenance and to assist in current projects. 
o Designed and programmed tools for process to analyze and monitor real-time
data (e.g. bottleneck identifier and historian) and automated existing tools in
Excel and Visual Basic.
