Professional Experience
I have been recognized numerous times for my ability to inspire, influence, and
motivate people in many types of training initiatives. I have a skill for buildi
ng confidence and a sense of ownership in personnel. I have designed and created
training materials for ERP/MRP systems functionality, trained groups of 25 and
more in that capacity, served as a continuous full-time Team Leader and mentor/
coach. My presentation AND coaching skills have been recognized as outstanding.
I worked many years in the actual production environment performing and testing
all the actual transactions, offering suggestions for simplifying and reducing s
teps along with trouble-shooting process failures, and insuring all systems an
d plant needs were met. Much of this was done in a complex manufacturing enviro
nment where over three thousand raw and packaging materials were received and in
ventoried, and over two thousand finished products were created and shipped. I a
lso designed many systems tracking mechanisms (FIFI reports, accuracy and track
ing reports,, etc) to capture critical data involving accuracy and productivity
metrics.
