  • Validated a protocol while working with testing facility in China to perform ANOVA Gage R&R

  • Presented in cross functional team meetings that encompassed engineering, product development, and testing

  • Performed research and development into angular displacement recognition rendering using MATLAB image analysis

  • Performed research and development into new product line testing models

  • MATLAB image compiling to mimic color spectrometer usages

  • Independently executed on project objective, meeting end targets and suggestions for later refinement

  • Conducted statistical analysis using the ANOVA Gage R&R approach to testing through Minitab

  • Worked on optimizing proprietary protocols used to obtain comparative data between competitors

  • Compiled MATLAB scripts and functions for projected use in signature test

  • Utilized Minitab as a tool to process and interpret data from testing

  • Produced directional tests for product development and engineering then presented results and significance
