Employment History:

ISP Elastomers, Port Neches, TX

Production Engineer (Co-op) June 2010-Present

Responsibilities:

While at ISP one of my major projects was to improve one of our slurry

additive processes by optimizing its makeup and delivery. By designing an

experiment in the lab that replicated the actual process I was able to

find the optimal temperature and concentration for the set point needed

in the design of a temperature control loop. Along with this I worked on

a project to decrease product yield loss by modifying a wash water tanks'

agitator location, piping configuration and effluent sample testing.

Another project involved creating a DOE to troubleshoot and ultimately

prevent the formation of unwanted coagulum in our blow down system and

recovery process. I also automated various spreadsheets including KPI's

and Daily Production Reports.
