What I'm looking for

I’m relocating to the Bay Area and seeking a chemical engineering role where I can apply hands-on process engineering, manufacturing support, capital-project implementation, and data analysis skills.

At The Toro Company’s Ditch Witch, I support a $70M transition to an automated industrial finishing system projected to yield $1M in annual savings. I manage contractor support through installation, testing, and training while supervising maintenance technicians and paint specialists.

At Avient Dyneema, I supported laminate composite manufacturing through SQL, MES, and SAP data analysis, recipe recommendations, and process trials. My work reduced defects by 5%, increased bottleneck equipment capacity by 10%, reduced maintenance downtime by 5%, and helped close a $2M sales gap caused by raw-material defects.

Across Sherwin-Williams manufacturing plants, I implemented an $800,000 resin capital project, supported a $50M reactor-train project, and contributed to PHA and HAZOP analyses. I’m relocating to the Bay Area to apply my chemical engineering and data analysis skills in a hands-on manufacturing role.
