Graduated 2002

Major: Industrial Manufacturing & Systems Engineering

WORK EXPERIENCE:

Manufacturing Engineer: Air Handler & Indoor Coils

Johnson Controls Inc., Wichita, KS October 2008 -

December 2009

. Provide production support for assembly processes

. Improve work cell layouts to advance production and capacity

. Process and document engineering changes and modifications

(Deviations)

. Develop preventative maintenance schedule for case bending

machinery

. Interact with maintenance on down equipment to minimize downtime

Accomplishments:

> In-sourced blower assembly to better meet production's

changing needs

> Reduced insulation part numbers by cutting parts internally

> Assisted with launch of multiple lines moved from Mexico

> Assisted with plant efficiency improvement project line move

Manufacturing Engineer: S80 & SB

Genie Industries, Moses Lake, WA April 2007 -

July 2008

Provided the production line & fabrication weld cells with solutions

for assembly questions some of which required root cause analysis

on internally fabricated parts to eliminate reoccurrence by

installing a poke - yoke

Developed and implemented solutions to project requests and green

sheets (safety issues)

Updated, and improved Standard Operating Procedures (SOP's) along with

Standard Work

Wrote Engineering Change Request (ECR) proposals as necessary to

improve the process or eliminate waste (Muda) from the production

floor

Executed Engineering Change Notice (ECN)

. Worked with the guidelines of the Toyota Production System

Accomplishments:

> Instrumental in bringing DC tooling into the Moses Lake

facility to improve the quality of the finished product and

adding to the safety of the team members

> Introduced MOST as a method of measuring work performance

> Participated in two Shingijutsu events

Production Manufacturing Engineer:

Isuzu Commercial Truck of America, Flint, MI August 2004 -

March 2007

Worked closely with assembly operations and ensured proper procedures

were maintained

. Primary contact for US & Japan quality with GM Flint-Assembly

. Provided action plans to resolve assembly obstacles; initiated

problem resolution communication and follow-ups to implement

corrective actions

. Applied MOST to create work standards for all operations in Isuzu

Flint warehouse; in turn the information was used towards continual

line balancing improvement as well as evaluating the feasibility of

new work

. Created a more efficient work environment; continually improved

work cell layout and line efficiency to meet Takt time

. Established, tracked, and documented daily production requirements

Accomplishments:

> Developed layout and coordinated facility rearrangement to

create an additional 5000 square feet for a new assembly to

be added at our location

> Created a tooling file in Access database allowing more ease

and efficiency to track torque calibration dates along with

monitoring tool history to determine when tooling should be

replaced rather than repaired

> Conducted time studies for the line & sub assemblies which

then set the ground work for a cost reduction of labor

between Isuzu & TNT
