OVERVIEW

I feel with my years in the quality field I am very efficient in the

Quality Engineer position. I have worked with robotic welding and metal

stamping. Ten years before that, I worked with plastic injection molding.

I have worked with parts that have critical dimensions and can implement

and teach SPC. I have worked with parts that the grain and color

(cosmetics) are critical. I work well with others in a team effort to

complete customer requirements. As a Quality Manager and a Quality

Engineer I believe my job is to protect the customer by being committed to

zero defects and continuous training of the operators and auditors involved

with the customer's parts.
