Daily, I track machine downtime, waste and other process inefficiencies. I share and communicate areas of improvement and work with associates to develop and implement solutions using lean manufacturing principles. Recently, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, our facility has been developing, testing and producing textile materials for use in hospitals.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\nOther NC State\/Wilson College activities: <\/strong>I participated in various intramural athletics as well as Unified League sports. Within the Wilson College of Textiles, I was an undergraduate research assistant.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
