Jeppesen Sanderson Inc – Quality Systems Intern June 2013 – August 2013

Responsible for improvement of the documentation system for the formal procedures and other proprietary documents.

Documentation system was initially scattered within the Jeppesen intranet and in some cases hard copy only. At the end of my internship a document registry system was developed so that documents could be filed, organized, and accessed entirely through the Jeppesen intranet. This system also ensured that only approved individuals could make changes to documents, and that those changes had to be approved by the proper managers before they would be published on the intranet.

Organized and ran virtual meetings with the marine business unit in Poland and organized and ran in person meetings with team members at the Rampart facility.

The system met ISO 9001 standards as well as Federal Aviation Administration and European Aviation Safety Agency standards and must be able to pass any future audits by those organizations. Additional Experience and Accomplishments
