EXPERIENCE MACHINE AREA SUPERVISOR, DEEZEE MANUFACTURING
May 2010-present
I have spent time in all areas of the manufacturing process, from assembly, powder coat,

process of fabrication. I am currently responsible for material handling, specs or blueprints,
machine setup, the checking of run parts, and correct computer entries of finished parts. I am

the correct procedures. The machine area has to run effectively or the entire process will shut
down, as all other areas are dependent on this first step in manufacturing.
SERVICE MANAGER, BUILDERS KITCHEN AND SUPPLY
April 1991-May 2008
I was the service manager for this company for more than 17 years. My responsibility was take
care of over 150 contractors that purchased our products. If products were damaged in shipment
or they were ordered wrong, I was to go to the jobsite and assess the situation, and either make
the repairs, or determine if replacement parts were to be ordered. In most cases I was able to
repair or rebuild the cabinets if necessary. From the time I started until the company was sold,
the company went from 3 million in sales to almost 6 million.
The other part of my job was to take care of the 60 plus rental properties my boss owned. This
included all repairs, upkeep, and complete updates when necessary. Between the two jobs I was
busy 60 to 70 every week.

I graduated with a Bachelor of Arts Degree. I was the only graduating senior with a major in
economics, political science, and philosophy. I was able to complete all 3 majors in 4 years.
I regularly hold meetings for employees in the machine area to let them know how they are
COMMUNICATI
