Machine Shop, and Gasket Shop. At Eagle Gasket I took care of all the NCR’s, and CAR’s, I was

procedures. I also took care of all the calibration and calibration records. I am familiar with various
types of plastics, rubbers, and other sealing materials. At Eagle Gasket due to my lean manufacturing

Production Planning and Inventory Control
Throughout my tenure at Technetics Group I have been very fortunate to have many opportunities to
gain knowledge and experience in all aspects of plastics, quality, and manufacturing in the machining
industry. I began as a CNC Machinist and was immediately promoted to Quality Inspector, Quality
Supervisor, and then Production Planning and Inventory Control / Production Supervisor. As a CNC
machinist I set-up and ran various types of plastic parts on Hass and Fadal CNC Mills. As an inspector
I conducted dimensional 1st article and final inspections on various types of precise machined
engineered plastic parts for the semi-conductor, chemical, oil, and aerospace fields I was responsible
for Certificates of Compliance, Inspection Repots, Calibration, FAI’s submittals, work instructions, and
improving quality. I have also done quality work with our sister company Texolon where we molded
different types of PTFE. As the inspector I conducted numerous tests on different types of PTFE, such
as tensile strength, specific gravity, elongation, and hardness. As the Quality Supervisor I was
responsible for managing the quality employees at both locations. I am very familiar with most
inspection hand tools, CMM’s, comparators, GDT, Blueprints, ISO plastics resins, Zeiss and Calypso.
As the Production Supervisor I managed all areas of the shop floor from the time the work order is
placed all the way down to the manufacturing and shipping of the finished product. As the supervisor I
dramatically reduced lead times and on time delivery by changing the work order process flow and
speeding up production. As the supervisor I have had a lot of TCV, continuous improvement, lean
manufacturing, and 5S training. Also a member of the safety committee, wellness committee, and a
