Dean’s List Student- 9 Semesters

2014 – 2015 New Jersey Institute of Technology Newark, NJ

Masters in Chemical Engineering

Cumulative GPA: 3.60

WORK EXPERIENCE:

June 2016-Present LSC Communications Cranbury, NJ

Operations Clerk

Operating in quality control department to ensure 100% quality with very good customer satisfaction rating.

Recommend changes to the Supervisor to improve upon procedures as required to exceed customer expectations.

Performs physical count on inventory items and inventory transactions to ensure that the warehouse has all the books in stock.

Performs quality check on condition of packages to meet all the criteria in the standard operating procedure

Operated Logpro computer software on desktop and RF scanner to perform necessary tasks

Helped reduce errors in QA department by 5% from previous years through the implementation of new recommended QC procedures.

OTHER EXPERIENCE:

Physical Chemistry Laboratory:

Jan 2013 – May 2013 (Bachelor of Science in Chemical Engineering)

Domain experience:

Used high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) to identify and measure component of different solutions

Worked with bomb calorimeter to determine heat of combustion for specific products

Learned to analyze composition of mixtures using UV-Vis spectrophotometer.

Chemical Engineering Laboratory:

Sept 2013- May 2014 (Bachelor of Science in Chemical Engineering)

Domain experience:

Experimentation on heat exchangers to apply knowledge of heat and mass transfer and thermodynamics

Worked with fluidized bed, packed bed, batch, semi-batch and continuous stirred tank reactors applying reactor design principles.

Applied continuous distillation techniques and determined the stages required using McCabe Theiele Analysis and examined it against the Aspen Radfrac Analysis

Studied and worked on a Karr column for liquid-liquid extraction to understand mass transfer, column efficiency and extraction performance as a function of agitation rate. Titration was used to determine solute concentrations of the solutions from the Karr column

Developed a strong understanding on plug flow reactors and determined to conclude the relationships between reactant to product conversion and the Damkholer number

Technology and presentation experience:

Creating reports like research proposal, journal article and presentation

Excellent understanding of Microsoft Excel to apply chemical engineering calculations

Chemical Plant Design:

Virtually designed a chemical plant that produces 100 KTA of synthetic ethanol from ethylene using Aspen Plus Software

Learned to choose appropriate equipment based on calculation, simulation, and thorough research on equipment leading to an efficient and cost effective operation.

Optimize the plant from initial base case to an optimized case by improving material selection for safety purposes

Learned to determine total costs and annual profits

Modeling techniques were applied using Aspen Plus software that efficiently saved time and money spent on actual preliminary testing

Developed Process flow and process instrumentation diagrams

Our business model was tested using cost analysis and succeeded to produce a sustainable business model.

SOFTWARE PROFICIENCY:

Advanced proficient in Microsoft Word and Power-point

Advanced proficient in Microsoft Excel with knowledge on data entry, creating linear regressions, etc.

Great understanding of software Minitab to perform statistical data analysis

Excellent knowledge about Aspen Plus Software (market-leading chemical process optimization software)

Excellent knowledge in using Polymath (computational software)

Very good knowledge in using Matlab (can create code that performs calculations on complex differential equations)
