I am a chemical engineer working for Cargill in Dayton, OH at a wet corn mill. Looking to further my education in engineering management in 2 years. I am currently the feed project engineer. Working on various projects to make process more reliable, efficient, and developing upgrades within the process through controls and automation.

Production Management Engineer @ New engineer duties of learning the process in depth of each department and completing a process, capital, and reliability project. Includes managing contractors, scheduling and budgeting of each project. From January 2013 to Present (2 years 10 months) Maintenance and Reliability Engineer Intern @ Worked on various projects and maintenance team. Replaced roads from asphalt to concrete due to swampy conditions of the grounds. Completed a slipstream to help reduce the load of the evaporators. Also completing designs for a pressure relief valve. Supervised contractors everyday and worked with many employees to collaborate on the design of the projects. Every week I came up with hazard analysis on various equipment in the plant. With this experience I received an exceed some expectations and had a great experience with the company. From May 2012 to August 2012 (4 months) Wahpeton, NDProject Engineer Intern @ With Cargill I was able to get hands on experience with engineering and supervising at the corn mill. With Cargill I worked in the Feed Department and was given 6 projects. With that six I implemented 4. The first accomplishment was using excel to find out total electrical output and to find how much we should be paying vs. per ton of product made. Saved department $80,000. Second was trying to fix a bottle neck in a liquefaction process which was an under overflow system. The underflow would build up and cause the process to eventually stop in about a two weeks. So I implemented air injection through a flange with a nozzle on the end to help the system to go longer before having to shutdown. The third project was replacing the control room floor. This taught me scheduling and making sure everyone knows how much more time the contractors need. There were hiccups in the process where oil made the floors bubble and those parts needed to be grinded down and fixed. Added more time than what I told my supervisors. The last project I completed was an auto-sampler for bran. This was an employee engagement for I got many details on where it should be placed and how to get there. With this experience I met expectations with in the company. It was a great experience and met great people within the company. From January 2011 to August 2011 (8 months) Blair, NE
