WORK EXPERIENCE

Mallinckrodt Pharmaceutical, Bedminster, NJ, USA October 2019 – December 2019 Graduate Intern – Supply Chain

• Evaluated bottlenecks in global supply chain process for a product line lead time analysis of historical data and quantified anticipated impact of each step resulting in a networking capital increase of ~$70,000 saved per day

• Created automated planning template for inventory management in excel based on historical sales data, order information, and forecasted demand data.

• The automated template reduced the initial time and effort invested in updating sheets and calculating demand by 30%.

• Performed demand forecasting, sales forecasting using tools like Excel, Excel solver, and python (Visual Studio Code)

• Performed weekly productivity tracking and reported to supervisor to ensure efficient running of shipments Stevens Institute of Technology, Hoboken, NJ

PROJECTS & ACHIEVEMENTS

Stevens Institute of Technology, Hoboken, NJ

Anti-lordotic brace for pediatric lumbar Spondylolysis January 2019 – May 2019

• Determined degree of flexibility and support by evaluating biomechanics and physiology of Boston brace system, and Milwaukee Brace for treatment of early stage Spondylolysis

• Designed an anti-lordotic brace by combining functionalities of hard-shell braces and soft corsets to provide better support with higher degree of flexibility using SolidWorks

Real-time Traumatic Brain Injury Screening using MEMS Devices August 2018 - December2018

• Hypothesis: A strong correlation between the biomechanical changes in deep brain regions and the impact intensity

• Utilized head kinematics data from Mouthguard sensors in 21 football players due to concussion or m-TBI

• Performed clinical statistical analysis based on three groups: non-injured, mildly injured and severely injured

• Computed mimics brains’ stress and strain levels in response to real life forces

• Proved hypothesis with an observation of a significant difference between brain stiffness among three groups based on impact intensity

• Clinical Analysis tests used: Gaussian Distribution for Normalization, Kolmogorov-Smirnov, ANOVA, two-sample t-test. D.J Sanghvi College of Engineering, Mumbai, India

Anti-tremor Glove June 2016 - May 2017

• Summary: Developed prototype of a low-cost wearable orthotic device to reduce hand tremors for Parkinson’s (PD) Patients

• Applied different physiotherapy tools and techniques to minimize tremor intensity by 40%

• Combined the functions of the gyro-accelerometer sensor and mechanical gyroscope to compute tremor parameters Designed prototype of gyrostabilizer assembly using SolidWorks

• Performed finite element analysis using SolidWorks Managed and scheduled meeting with mentors, physiotherapists, and PD patients Achievements
