Profile

While working in the manufacturing industry for over thirty two years several lessons have been learned. One of strengths was to listen and learn from some of the best in their field. There are many ways to solve problems and situations. It is better to take the time to access and evaluate the problem before making any rash decisions. This could save the company time and money. One of my greatest strengths is to work as a team member.
