Professional Bio
Although initially trained in Chemical engineering, very soon upon entering the workforce Lean training and implementation entered my career. First, receiving training and practicing in aluminum smelters in the US. Within a few years, I was coaching and implementing Lean in the US, Canada, Norway, Brazil, and China.
My personal and professional experience abroad led to several overseas assignments in India and China, where I was training others and implementing focused lean projects. I truly enjoy the diversity of cultures and environments in which my skills allow me to work.
Upon returning to the US, I had the opportunity to help lead the implementation of SAP at A.O. Smith. For the last 7 years, I have returned to the sphere of developing and implementing a TPS based, "Lean Thinking & Working" framework, honing my coaching skills, and working to create a culture of highly engaged people solving problems and innovating to drive long-term profitable growth.
