Summary

I began my career as a Packing Operator in Pldevelopment, where I gained hands-on experience with production processes and quality standards. Over time, I advanced to the role of Production Line Lead, where I supervised and optimized team operations, ensuring production targets and quality standards were consistently met. I then transitioned to Quality Assurance Inspector, focusing on maintaining high-quality standards through rigorous inspections and process improvements. Currently, I serve as a Changeover Coordinator, where I manage and streamline equipment changeovers, minimizing downtime and enhancing production efficiency. Throughout my career, I’ve developed strong leadership, problem-solving, and process optimization skills, with a focus on continuous improvement in manufacturing environments.
