Summary

Leading the maintenance and troubleshooting of the producer GT, SE, and HDP Centura 300mm tool sets at GlobalFoundries, I ensure the optimal performance and reliability of the equipment, as well as the quality and consistency of the products. I work with a team of engineers and technicians, contributing to the continuous improvement and innovation of the CVD processes and procedures. I created the first job-based instructions for all FX robot work and calibrations for GF, which are actively used today. Current maintenance tool owner of HARP and FCVD toolsets helping save GF over 10 million dollars annually. With 7 years of experience in the semiconductor industry, I have developed skills in proficiently leading a team meeting all KPI's, electronics, electrical wiring, robotics, and electro-mechanical troubleshooting, which enable me to handle complex and challenging technical issues. I am also a graduate of Fulton-Montgomery Community College, where I earned an associate degree in nanotechnology, gaining knowledge of nanofabrication, nanomaterials, and nano characterization. I am passionate about leading a team, helping others succeed, learning new technologies and advancing my career in the nanotechnology field.
