      Working as a Co-Op at Therma-Tru Corp. was a lot like working at a first time engineering job. I was mostly treated just like a newly hired engineer would be. I worked with the retail business unit of the company at an R&D facility mostly supporting our manufacturing and process engineers at the plant. I was involved in multiple projects such as a major packaging change, a multi-million dollar cost savings initiative, and statistical analysis of the company's product.

      Engineering intern

      I worked at Foamex as a processing engineer. Specifically I was working to improve the process of one of the plant's thermal reticulators. During my time here I worked with operators, management, and engineering in order to come up with better processes in order to increase production. During my short time here I put a Quality Control system in place and used the data from it to increase yield on major product by at least 6%.

    • Neff engineering

      Technical sales intern

      At Neff I worked as a technical sales intern. What I learned from Neff is the basics of automation in manufacturing, and the sales process. I was involved in assisting engineers with proof of concept for customers, assisted in systems construction, and I experienced the sales process by traveling to customer locations. Overall this was a great experience that was a good introduction to both manufacturing automation, and the technical sales business.
