Summary
Driven professional with extensive experience in equipment operation and quality assurance, notably at Berry Global. Demonstrated leadership in improving productivity and ensuring compliance with safety standards. Skilled in equipment calibration and troubleshooting, with a keen eye for detail. Proven track record of enhancing inspection procedures to boost effectiveness by over 30%.
My biggest thing about myself is I love to help people which is why I decided to go into the medical field as a sterile processing tech. Once I start my journey with this career I hope to learn more and more about the medical scene and hopefully grow into something else even more helpful.
