I come from a family with a long history in manufacturing, with both my parents working and retiring from the industry. I learned the value of manufacturing early on and joined the manufacturing workforce at the start of my college years. Over time, I gained experience in academia, business, and healthcare, which has provided me with a unique perspective on the manufacturing industry.
With over 20 years of experience, I have led multiple projects and teams, developed sustainable programs, and facilitated leadership training focused on enhancing self-awareness and team building. My approach includes setting actionable goals to reduce turnover, improve workplace collaboration, foster creativity and problem-solving, and create career advancement opportunities.
