PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE:

Contract Industrial Engineer: ELFG, Greer, SC

3/09 - Present

Provide engineering support for short term projects to customers (Pilgrims

Pride Corp., Bosal Automotive, Husqvarna Corp.,) requiring sound root

cause and corrective action activities to support failure analysis and

utilization of Lean principles (Process Mapping, Control Plan, PPAP, Gage

R&R, PFMEA, MSA, SMED, Kanban, Visual Control, 8D and 5S, Layout, Time and

Capacity Studies) to improve productivity and promote a culture of

continuous improvement.

Sr. Industrial Engineer: Plastic Omnium, Anderson, SC

5/07 - 3/09

Resolved productivity and quality system constraints in 3 T/S 16949

certified facilities using Lean strategies to enhance injection molding

and assembly of automotive exterior modules: managed internal and customer

driven EC for BMW, Mobis, and GM. Managed action items across several

cross functional teams to ensure on-time completion; performed internal

audits of Quality System for ISO recertification. Implemented capital

projects resulting in the following cost reductions: material by

$500,000/yr using CLIFS to recycled resin; labor costs by $180,000/yr

utilizing an automatic screw feeding system; potential worker compensation

claims by automating manual repetitive trimming processes that reduced

ergonomic concerns of CTD.

Industrial Engineer III: Tyco Electronics, Spartanburg, SC

2/02 - 5/07

Utilized DMAIC and Lean strategies to analyze T/S 16949 certified

injection molding, metal stamping, and assembly of automotive electrical

connectors; implemented capital projects; developed standard cost data,

cost breakdown for make or buy, layouts, annual budget and submitted

monthly forecast and managed product transfers. Lead teams resulting in

the following cost reductions: operating costs by $1,500,000/yr using a

central resin processing system; labor costs by $410,563/yr using one-

piece flow for Mold and MIP work cell; labor costs by $207,171/yr by use

of automatic inspection equipment for QIP. Conducted 6 Sigma training in

DMAIC processes and managed the Associate Certification program

Sr. Process Engineer: Alcoa Fujikura Ltd., Duncan, SC

10/00 - 6/01

Provided engineering support to assembly and testing of fiber optic

connectors and harnesses: designed work cells using JPS/APS principles

reducing labor costs 38%; automated measuring and cutting of fiber optic

cable saving labor costs of $250,000/yr. Applied Kaizen process controls

reducing rework costs by 95%.

Sr. Industrial Engineer (Subcontract): SauerDanfoss Fluid Power, Easley,

SC 10/98 - 10/00

Developed engineered time standards and performed process flow analysis

that optimize efficiency of resources, reducing rework and scrap costs for

precision machining, assembling and testing of hydraulic fluid control

products.

Manager Engineering & Safety: General Nutrition Products, Greenville, SC

6/93 - 10/98

Implemented engineering principles and OSHA compliance in this dietary

supplement/pharmaceutical manufacturing facility; supported production,

packaging, warehousing, and plant maintenance. Justified capital

expenditures; budget and business plans; bar-coded SFR system that

provided real time data; RF system that improved inventory accuracy; new

tablet compression technology that tripled capacity; work flow

requirements that reduced hard-shell labor costs by 66%; reduced cost per

accident and increased the hours per accident worked from 17,225 to

250,000.
