  • Lead compressor station reliability initiatives for various systems, including identifying and prioritizing 100+ unserviced PSVs and inspecting obsoleted Avon lube oil systems
  • Conducted 2 Re-aero Balance of Plant Assessments for compressor wheel modifications, identifying undersized high pressure gas equipment, preventing safety issues once implemented
  • Developed a model to estimate fugitive gas emissions from scrubber drains, enhancing leak detection capabilities at site by 5%

Compression Civil & Mechanical Intern

TC Energy
05.2023 - 02.2024
  • Assisted the R&D team in developing a simulation tool for Purge, Load, and Venting scenarios in compressor casings helping with vent valve sizing and gas emissions modelling
  • Analyzed and organized ultrasonic testing results for pressure vessels to ensure regulatory compliance for 15+ compressor and meter stations across Canada, and supported data collection for ABSA audits
  • Enhanced facilities data quality by 10% through reconciling 200+ compression equipment records in SAP and managed data entry for GMPC and facility projects, including drafting engineering justification documents

IBM Maximo Intern

Air Liquide
05.2022 - 08.2022
  • Accurately inputted information for building of over 3000 assets from P&IDs & various plant visits
  • Created inventory for both stock and non-stock items in IBM Maximo for the onsite and CO2 plants
  • Worked with the engineering team as well as with cross-functional teams to continuously improve the work process of Maximo

Projects

Integrated Process Simulation of an Ethylbenze to Styrene Plant

  • Designed a chemical plant that produces 80,000 tonnes of styrene per year at 99.9% purity through the dehydrogenation of ethylbenzene, followed by separation processes. The design optimized economic, social, and environmental aspects of the plant.


Advanced Recycling Plant Proposal for McMaster University

  • Proposed an efficient, safe, and discrete waste facility process to recover recyclables from waste streams generated on the McMaster campus to aid the University in reaching its sustainability goals with 85% optical sorting accuracy.
