Experience
Research Assistant Smart Factory Operations Framework
Syracuse University College Of Engineering And Computer Science
Jun 2025 — Present · Syracuse, NY, US
As a Research Assistant at Syracuse University, I developed a comprehensive Smart Factory Operations framework integrating Lean Six Sigma methodology with digital analytics to improve manufacturing and inventory performance. The project focused on designing a structured DMAIC-based system that connects process mapping, KPI dashboards, root cause analysis tools, and SOP-driven control plans into a cohesive improvement model. I built data simulations, performance tracking dashboards, and implementation guidelines to demonstrate how organizations can optimize inventory turnover, forecast accuracy, production efficiency, and preventive maintenance compliance. This work strengthened my ability to translate analytical insights into actionable operational strategies, aligning closely with roles in operations management, manufacturing engineering, and continuous improvement.
