pharmaceutical company, having the opportunity to work in different
manufacturing plants within the same complex and implement policies and
system according to their particular needs. Throughout my career, I have
always focused on delivering the highest levels of management and customer
service as part of the business team with the ability to identify with
employees at all levels in the organization. As a hands-on manager, I have
always focused on deliverables, communicating goals, and measuring success
by not only meeting expectations, but exceeding them. Recognizing talent,
mentoring, developing individuals, building a dedicated and positive team,

on results.
