Packaging Personified, Inc.

Software Engineer • Oct 2025–Present

Warsaw, IN

At Packaging Personified, I’ve focused on building Retool applications that connect production data, reporting needs, and operational workflows in a way that is fast, usable, and reliable.

What I worked on

My work has centered on creating internal tools for production, compliance, accounting, and operations groups. I’ve built applications that reduce manual effort, make data more accessible, and improve consistency across teams.

• • Developed and maintained internal applications using Retool, PostgreSQL, SQL, and JavaScript for production, compliance, accounting, and operations teams.
• • Built the Yield Report application to track company and customer job performance, material usage, production efficiency, and operational trends.
• • Consolidated spreadsheets and multiple data sources into EPA reporting tools supporting environmental compliance workflows for Illinois and Michigan facilities.
• • Created reusable tools, including a standardized Header Module and scalable Location Swap application, to improve consistency across Retool applications.
• • Optimized applications and automated workflows for performance, reliability, and usability, including improving Press WIP processing speed by more than 40%.
• • Trained managers, developers, company owners, and end users on Retool functionality, application workflows, and development best practices.
