SKILLS
• Continues Improvement and team development
In my current position I am responsible for directing several different ownership teams to
achieve our common goal of high reliability
Develop Process and TWS(Technical Work Sheet) and OPL (One Point Lesson) to help
streamline department related tasks and ensure repeatability.
Mitigate for the various ownership teams when communication would break down
Through the ownership teams and redefined maintenance strategy we had a record breaking
year in MTBF and MTTR
Through a new approach to how work is scheduled and planned we dropped our
Maintenance cost per run HR about 40%
• 5S
Developed 5S programs for the Maintenance shop and related areas, these included daily
tasks, shadow boards and tag systems for sustainability.
Completed several Kaizen Blitz on several systems to cut waste and improve overall functions
of each system.
• Safety
I have a 0 accident record
I have been well trained and even provided training for Confined Space, LOTO, arc flash, hot
work permits and Hazmat Response
I was chosen as the night shift Emergency Coordinator for the ST George Ice Cream Plant
• Personal Development
I have been to many training sessions on crucial conversations, critical thinking and problem
solving.
Our team has worked very hard to remove the barrier between departments (production vs.
maintenance) and it has had a tremendous impact on the way our plant runs.
I believe that building strong teams is the only way to achieve and maintain success.
