Hi, I’m

Summary

In 1998 I was hired by my current employer as a consultant to audit their manufacturing facility and let them know of any areas of weakness or bottlenecks that could he improved by implementing consistent and repeatable procedures & techniques to build efficiency. They asked me to come in full time as their Quality Manager.

Over the last 26yrs I have been asked to take on many roles within the company and have accepted every new responsibility that I have been given. I have a lust for learning new things and continuing to grow. I have seen the company thru their acquiring five new companies and managed a great deal of the back office responsibilities included in integrating those new companies into our own.

January of 2024 saw a restructuring within the company and for financial reasons I was asked to stay on as a part time employee, working three days a week in a position that offers little in the way of challenges or growth potential.

While I truly love my history with this company, I am too young and active to be fulfilled by this kind of part time position. I am interested in finding a role with a new company that can benefit from my years of experience and offer a healthy environment for growth. Ultimately, I’m looking for company where I can see the last chapter in the book of my business career written and retire from many years from now.
