Additional Comments I have been working in the Aviation industry for 12 years now and bring with me a total on 15 years of experience that makes me a well-seasoned professional. I bring with me experience of working with commercial, military, charter, and prototype aircraft. I am experienced and knowledgeable with Boeing, Airbus, Bombardier, Dornier, and Lockheed and have proven myself to be both versatile when working with various aircraft makes & customers. Experience January 2011 to Current Company Name City , State Purchaser / Production Coordinator My journey at Flightstar began with production coordinating, where I was responsible for interfacing with leads, project managers, and customer representatives regarding aircraft documentation, parts status, and any problems that may affect the delivery schedule. In this position I was responsible for aircraft paperwork and work cards during the maintenance visits. I worked one on one with purchasing to ensure the proper communication of parts that could affect aircraft delivery and help expedite these parts as necessary. When services were required either in house or items being sent out for any kind of testing or repair, I would provide complete and accurate paperwork to purchasing. Daily reporting of parts statuses, man hours, and aircraft schedule was a daily task. Being a coordinator first and already having experience in purchasing made my transition to a buyer smooth since I could now work more closely with the coordinators with each of us able to support one another better with part status updates and any paperwork issues. Like coordinators I have to interface with leads, project managers, and customer representatives. In addition I have to communicate between various departments at FAS such accounting to make sure that material is paid and billed accurately as well as quality to make sure that the parts purchase are up to standard and come from an approved source. Being on both sides of the fence I know see that coordinators spend more time corresponding between the different areas of the job where buyers spend more time on parts themselves. Purchasers are responsible for every part purchased or requested and Have the sole responsibility of resolving any materials needed. I have to not only purchase the parts but also validate the paperwork or trace is acceptable and legal. If it isn't, resolve any rejected parts by means of returns and credits. Buyers are responsible for expediting all orders and making sure that they are received as needed. We then report this information to the coordinators and project managers as necessary. Outside vendor interaction is a big part of purchasing and we have to form business relationships to effectively perform or duties. In addition I am responsible for meeting standards and performance metrics within the company to make that we are functioning at an industry standard to rise above the competition. Purchasing is also responsible for cost savings such engaging in supplier contracts and rebate programs. These savings of course benefits everyone on the company. Purchasers are a point of contact between FAS, suppliers, and customers regarding materials so effective communication and reporting is key in this position. February 2009 to December 2010 Company Name City , State Purchasing Clerk / Material Specialist Working with Vision Airlines included a lot of different responsibilities. Not only was I responsible for quoting and purchasing materials for both Aircraft and Stock, but also included Stores / Warehouse, Shipping, and Receiving responsibilities. Being a smaller Airline I work closely with the Executive staff as well as the owners of the company themselves. After receiving a Material Order Request, I would acquire the necessary quotes to find the best price and lead time available. If needed, get approval to proceed with the order. Coordinate and expedite the shipping and payment process to get the material where it needs to be in a timely manner. I would match invoice with purchase orders and track shipments to assure their arrival. Upon receipt of material, I then would verify proper certification of the material, receive into the system, and label as required. Once material is ready to be used, issue from the system to assure all records was correct. All of this required constant tracking using Excel, Word, and Adobe. I kept records of all transactions whether it was materials needing to be ordered, Purchase Orders themselves, Invoices needing to be paid, or items that that have already been received. As well as certifications and any other information requested from maintenance. If an item needed to be shipped I was responsible for the proper packaging, handling, and traceability to be done in a professional manner. As part of the AOG team I would be called on at any time to locate and facilitate the material where the urgent requirement may be. This involved having key information to acquire the material and coordinate with the proper logistics necessary. Also as a valued member of the material group I have represented the Airline at maintenance facilities to properly manage the material being ordered and used for an Aircraft. February 2005 to January 2009 Company Name City , State Purchasing Agent / Material Expeditor I started working as a Material Expeditor which required me to work closely with Purchasing, Maintenance, and the Airline. Being an Expeditor had responsibilities that could change day by day depending on what was required of me. I provided daily reports and expedited any material needed to keep the production process flowing efficiently. This meant coordinating the order and shipment process, as well as the actual delivery of the material. My responsibility as a Purchasing Agent is to find price and availability on material needed and then order and track for prompt shipment. This requires me to deal directly with the vendors and develop relationships for future business. I also retrieve any and all paperwork required, retrieving certification, submit any and all signatures necessary, and expedite the material in a timely fashion. Once I have received the material I then facilitate and expedite the flow of materials to and from various departments. I have worked with many different Airline companies as well as Military, which all have high and demanding standards to meet. With this job no two days are the same, it is a constant change with challenging obstacles. In addition to being a Buyer and Expeditor, I was responsible for doing spare Sales to sister and contract companies. This required the technique of verifying stock, quoting material, ensuring proper certification, and shipping. Between the three job functions I was constantly providing and coordinating AOG orders support. Clientlogic (DELL).

Experience ENGINEERING INTERN 08/2016 - 12/2016 Company Name State Project: Develop a cavings transport model for optimizing hole-cleaning operations. Developed a solids transport model for predicting cuttings/cavings bed height during a hole-cleaning operation. In contrast to conventional CFD models that typically take several hours to run, this novel numerical model can obtain results within a few minutes, enabling timely optimization of the well circulation schedule. Investigated the competitive landscape and designed the commercialization plan for the numerical model. Leveraged the experiences from internal drilling experts and aligned with all stakeholders throughout the development process. ENGINEERING INTERN 05/2016 - 08/2016 City , State Project: Optimize diverter pumping schedule for better production performance after well re-stimulation. Built a simulator to model proppant, diverter, and slurry distribution in a plug-and-perf hydraulic fracturing operation. Derived a simple proxy model to substitute time-consuming CFD-DEM simulations for predicting diverter transport through perforation clusters. Simulation time drops from 48+ hours to less than 1 sec. Provided recommendations for pumping schedule design in a fracturing treatment. PROCESS ENGINEER 04/2012 - 05/2013 Company Name City Improve display yield through statistical modeling, process control, and tool modifications. Won Qualstar award in Nov. 2012 by completing two specific yield improvement tasks in merely two months, first time for QMT-TW to award its engineers after establishment.

PROPPANT/DIVERTER TRANSPORT in HORIZONTAL WELLS, UT Austin Aug. 2014-present. Evaluate the efficiency of proppant/diverter transport in perforated horizontal wells under different slurry flow conditions using a combined CFD-DEM approach. Developed a multivariate statistical model to substitute traditional CFD model for predicting proppant transport through perforations at various flow conditions. The computational cost dropped 5 orders of magnitude. Accurately predicted DAS-measured proppant distribution in a field case with less than 10% error. Chu-Hsiang Wu Page 2 DESIGN and SELECTION of GRAVEL PACK and SAND CONTROL SCREENS, UT Austin Jun. 2013-present.

Accurately predicted 6 sand production lab-test results obtained from operators with less than 15% error using the developed model. Invented a DEM-based approach for extracting pore throat size distribution of complex packings. Results show that the pore throat sizes within gravel packs are usually between 1/5 to 1/9 of the effective gravel size. The findings correspond remarkably well with previous field observations and enable further optimization of gravel pack designs. 06/2010 Company Name Designed highly mixing-efficient serpentine channels for biomedical detection.
