  • Jun 2022 - Dec 2022

  Greatly contributed to a large scale quality audit by reviewing and updating over 150 cutup testing plans and associated documents to validate that they were accurately meeting customer requirements. Consulted with and assisted metallurgists and customer representatives in reviewing documentation and solving problems. Saved over $400K in annual testing costs by streamlining testing documents through customer procedures. Additionally, I worked on a project to improve the accuracy of tensile testing results from the testing lab. I accomplished this by developing an Excel/VBA code to automate the calculation of material properties, producing results with a higher accuracy than the lab. Show less
