  Teaching Assistant

  I successfully implemented several innovative solutions to enhance the learning experience for students. To effectively manage the prizes and vast inventory of over 400 books, I developed a streamlined inventory system that allowed participants to select their desired books. This system also automatically notified the fulfillment team, ensuring efficient book distribution. I also created a user-friendly voting platform that empowered students to vote for their preferred book to read next. I also devised a comprehensive process to track game winners and implemented a dynamic scoreboard to foster engagement and motivation. Collaborating with instructors, I designed engaging lessons that promoted critical thinking and bridged connections to current events. As part of my responsibilities, I also prepared questions and led weekly discussions to assess students' reading comprehension. Show less

  As an Energy Analyst, I spearhead the deployment of sensors across manufacturing facilities and wastewater treatment plants to audit their energy consumption patterns and operational efficiency. Through these insights, I’ve been instrumental in developing energy conservation plans that have saved companies over $100,000 annually. I also write technical reports on my findings to break down complicated topics and persuade company management to implement my recommendations.
