Over the past 25+ years as a Quality Assurance professional, I have worked for companies such as Robert Bosch Corporation, Collins and Aikman, and Charleston Marine Containers. During that time, I held a myriad of positions including Quality Manager, Quality Director, Quality Engineer, Six Sigma Black Belt, Supplier Quality Manager, Supplier Quality Engineer, and Technical Buyer. I also ran my own company, Quality Minds, Inc., which was a Lean Six Sigma training and consulting operation.
I love teaching and helping people learn new tools and techniques. My passion is in statistical thinking and management of process and system variation. I have planned and led over 50 Kaizen events and training sessions, and have served clients covering the automotive, aerospace, retail, utility, steel, textile, hospitality, and education industries.
