Professional Process Control Team Intern 05/2018 - 08/2018

Experience Sabic Innovative Plastics | Selkirk, NY

 Helped develop/edit the Alarm Management Philosophy. This official document outlined the specifics of what Alarm
Management was, it's importance, and how it will impact the Selkirk site.
 Harvested and analyzed 59 weeks’ worth of alarm data. This data will serve as the baseline for all Key Performance
Indicators regarding Alarm Management in the future.

color temperature and CRI also induce inactivity and decrease productivity. I applied OSHA standards and vetting
companies to install the most effective lighting design for our biggest control room.
 Held meetings and lead discussions to implement Alarm Management
