SUMMARY Chemical Engineer, who has over 4 years of diverse experience
in energy, chemicals, and materials sectors. Involved in research and
development processes of heat-sensitive adhesive polymers and fiber-
cement filtrated composite materials. Designed and managed framework
of product development and quality assurance as well as team
administration. Most recently worked with project team to develop
process specifications for gasification feasibility studies with TICs
in excess of $100M.
EDUCATION - B.S., Chemical Engineering with a specialization in
Material Science Engineering
University of California, Irvine - Class of 2004
- Attended and completed advance engineering design courses
(SolidWorks) for Spring 2009 (April-June 2009), Fall 2009 (Oct-Dec
2009), and Spring 2010 (April-June 2010) semester at Mt. San Antonio
College.
