I turn process data into measurable operational improvements — through process optimization, workflow mapping, and data-driven decision-making.

About

I'm an Industrial Engineering student at Texas Tech University and a Richmond local, driven by a simple idea: most operations have hidden inefficiencies, and the right data reveals them.

As an Industrial Engineering Intern at International Energy Services Limited (IESL), I mapped critical workflows, supported safety audits, and developed industrial-grade P&IDs in AutoCAD and Aspen HYSYS. Beyond engineering, I sharpen my analytical edge as a Venture Capitalist Extern with HP Tech Ventures and by building AI-powered tools like my decision-support app, The Tiebreaker.

I care about continuous improvement, safety, integrity, and cost-effectiveness — and I'm looking for internship / co-op opportunities for Summer 2027, with a strong interest in operations and data center / infrastructure projects.
