SUMMARY
I am a hard worker with 20 years of team experience in the
plastics/packaging industry as an Ink Technician, Slitter Operator, and
Flexographic Press Operator. I have gained extensive experience, knowledge,
skills and abilities working with flexographic printing inks on
polyethylene and cellophane films; matching ink colors, trouble shooting at
press-side and all facets of printing and ink production projects. Through
formal education and on the job training, I have learned how to improve the
quality of the final product, reduce cost and satisfy internal and external
customers. A fast learner, I can easily adapt to new operating procedures.
I am an efficient, reliable, hard-worker with good work ethics.
