Profile:

In the Electrical Business for over 35 years and in the Food and Beverage Market for the last 13. Troubleshooter, who is not afraid to get out into the fire, Master Electrician, and Control Engineer skilled at managing projects as well as the day to day production issues that arise. Worked with all Rockwell software, AutoCAD, SAP (Maintenance, Inventory and Procurement Modules. At the last 4 plants, started Preventive Maintenance programs and predictive maintenance programs to reduce downtime and get away from the putting out fires. I have a strong belief that most downtime can be reduced by predictive maintenance and stopping issues before they arise. This has required years of training in software and data collection to enable the plants to know for a fact what is causing all the downtime. Assisted with managing budgets (Inventory and Labor), and projects over 2 million dollars.
