Accomplishments

I successfully implemented and automated maintenance processes at Pentair and Saint-Gobain using CMMS (Computerized Maintenance Management System) software. This initiative resulted in a significant reduction in maintenance costs, enhanced maintenance productivity, and streamlined work order management. By automating preventive maintenance scheduling, improving asset tracking, and optimizing inventory control, we were able to increase worker efficiency and minimize downtime.



- Successfully managed a $3.5M project to transition the manufacturing operations of Cardone Industries from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, to Brownsville, Texas. This involved overseeing every aspect of the relocation, including logistics, site evaluation, equipment transportation, workforce training, and regulatory compliance. I effectively coordinated with cross-functional teams, vendors, and contractors to ensure the project was completed on time, within budget, and with minimal disruption to operations. My ability to manage complex logistics and mitigate risks was key to the successful execution of this large-scale transition



-Successfully led the transition of a manufacturing cell from Pentair’s Stafford, Texas, branch to Harlingen, Texas, managing the entire process with a focus on cost efficiency. This included overseeing the relocation of equipment, ensuring minimal downtime, and coordinating staff training at the new facility.
