Master of Science: Chemical Engineering University of Mississippi • Oxford, MS, Dec 2016, GPA 3.52 Bachelor of Science: Chemical Engineering University of Mississippi • Oxford, MS, May 2014, GPA 3.41 Professional Experience

Research Project, Graduate Researcher • University of Mississippi, Oxford, MS • Fall 2014 to Fall 2016 Functioned as a teaching assistant in charge of advising undergraduate chemical engineering students in courses such as: Plant Design I & II, Transport Phenomena, and Process Control and Safety. Led a research project focused on the dynamic mechanical and thermal properties of cellulose nanocrystal/epoxy nanocomposites. The project involved fabricating CNC-based epoxy nanocomposites using pristine and surface-coated CNCs and distributing CNCs in epoxy using three-roll milling and sonication.

Earned recognition for executing the project on a timely basis

Observed the best results at 5wt% of CNCs; storage and loss modulus increased by 31% and 57%, respectively.

Implemented potential applications in the fabrication of light-weight structural composites for cross- functional industries (construction, automotive and aerospace). Influenza Vaccine Plant Design • University of Mississippi, Oxford, MS • Spring 2014 Participated in the AIChE National Student Plant Design Competition as a member of a 3 person team, where competitors designed and optimized an innovative pharmaceutical plant producing influenza vaccines via insect cells within 2 months.

Designed a plant capable of producing 50M of trivalent vaccines via sf9 cells (rate of return was 97%).

Executed simulations in Pro/II and SuperPro Designer. Maleic Anhydride Plant Design • University of Mississippi, Oxford, MS • Fall 2013 Functioned as a member of a 3 person team to successfully design and optimize the Maleic Anhydride Plant.

Designed a plant capable of producing 20,000tons/yr of (99.8wt%) maleic anhydride (net present value, rate of return and capital investment were $33.9M, 30% and $26.9M, respectively).

Performed Pro/II simulations and analyzed pertinent economics. Technical Proficiency
