He then went to work in Victoria, Texas in 2018 to work for Invista where he had previously completed 2 summers of internships. He later transferred to Invista in Orange, Texas. He moved to BASF in Port Arthur in December 2023. He had already, at his young age, made a name for himself in the industry well documented in his resume. He was a kind, friendly person and had a great sense of humor and fun. He got along with everyone. He ate, drank, and slept chemical engineering. He loved Texas A&M and had a great life.

He is survived by his daughter, Madelyn Doorbar, his mother, Jackie Doorbar of Houston, his twin brother, Richard W. Doorbar '16, also a chemical engineer who works for Dow in Orange, Texas.

He will be sorely missed.
