Professional Experience:

I have better than 25 years of professional experience working primarily in

Telecommunications and Information Technology. Additional experience includes

Manufacturing, Recreational, and Food Service industries.

I have worked in various capacities from technical levels through Senior Management

positions implementing initiatives and strategies to improve standard operating

procedures resulting with higher production efficiencies, seamless transitions, and

comprehensive documentation. My leadership abilities have proven successful in

bridging departmental objectives as well as providing guidance to direct reports.

My experience enables me to work through critical times by resolving issues immediately

and implementing appropriate “work-a-rounds”. My analytic skills have proven successful

in determining root causes and corrective actions necessary to avoid future project

obstacles. I am able to perform effectively during stressful periods and communicate

positively to mitigate the stress of others.

Through the years I have made and maintained many professional relationships. I realize

there may be a host of ideas to accomplish the same task. I am strong and confident in

the decisions I make; yet, not so proud to seek advice from other qualified professionals.

Education:

Colorado Technical University Online

Software Engineering 4.00 GPA

Sinclair Community College

Business Administration 3.75 GPA

Lean Six Sigma – Yellow Belt

Professional Summary:

Since March of 2004 I have worked as a consultant for several organizations developing

tools for data analysis, data storage, and other applications as needed. I have held

various positions from programmer to senior executive providing the necessary skill sets

to achieve expected goals and expectations. The following are a few significant

accomplishments achieved over the past few years and the active duration with the

respective organizations.

Proctor and Gamble: 3-2007 through 7-2012 Cincinnati, OH

In March of 2007 I designed and implemented an MS Access solution to accept input

data from scanners that would read all bar code formats currently being used in addition

to reading and converting the information coded into the newly defined GS1 Data Bar that

would become the standard effective in 2010.

Upon completion of the bar code tool I developed and implemented software solutions

using MS Access and MS Excel to locate potential coupon fraud. These applications pull

data from their proprietary database and determine the likelihood of potential fraud from

retailers and clearinghouses.

Ryder: 9-2010 through 3-2011 Hebron, KY

I developed several MS Access databases during the conversion at Honeywell when they

changed their logistics operations from UPS to Ryder. These databases satisfy a host of

functional requirements including a Yard Management System tracking all trailers,

inbound/outbound appointments, and other trafficking issues.

NewPage: 3-2009 through 6-2010 Miamisburg, OH

Working in the Financial Planning and Analysis Department my primary responsibility was

developing analytic reports and maintaining Dashboards by extracting data from JD

Edwards, COGNOS, and SAP for input into one database. Most reports were prepared

by using pivot tables within Excel that extract data from Access tables.

Bway Corp: 2-2005 through 3-2007 Cincinnati, OH

Database Development:

I developed multiple databases in a client / server environment tracking Production

Statistics, Quality Assurance Initiatives, and a Preventive Maintenance and Repair

Application for production machines. All active databases reside on a server and are

linked to various applications on several PCs throughout the plant providing all users with

the most current, up to date information.

The database project takes full advantage of the Microsoft Office Suite of programs by

linking, exporting, and importing information as necessary. One of the many highlights of

the system is the ability to email links allowing the recipient to input data into specific

fields without jeopardizing the integrity of the databases. To accommodate users that

prefer to create custom reports and charts on the fly, functionality was developed to

export data to “Holding” mdbs that are linked to MS Excel spreadsheets enabling users to

further analyze information.

The system has proved to be an exceptional management tool by providing statistical

data to include; Preparation Time, Downtime, Units Per Scheduled Hour, Units Per Run

Hour, Spoilage Percentages, Stream Percentages, Average Lengths Per Run, Defects

Against Production Level Percentages, OEE and OEA among many other detail reports.

Production Line Supervision and Management:

As Supervisor and Manager of the Shear Line I led a staff of 14 associates producing cut

metal sheets for aerosol cans. By redefining and implementing departmental objectives,

goals, and associate expectations I increased production levels from an average of 5500

sheets per scheduled hour to 6800 sheets per scheduled hour and reduced the spoilage

rate by nearly a half percent.

Departmental efficiencies were improved by developing an MS Access solution for

importing scheduling information from MFG PRO. This application provides all the

necessary information to keep the Shear Line operating at maximum efficiencies while

maintaining the ease of making last minute schedule changes with minimal disruptions.

The MS Access application proved extremely successful and was expanded to include

scheduling for the Litho and Coating Departments.

Coca-Cola: 2-2004 through 8-2004 Norwood, OH

I developed an MS Access application for the Coca-Cola Company that tracks sales

availability for new product lines. The processing of the application includes the ability to

aggregate physical volumes and produce percentage comparisons. Implemented at the

regional level the application processed data producing statistical reports for over 27,000

locations. The application was proven successful and now is being used at the national

level.
