Summary
Driven, highly motivated and experienced in management in a wide range of business applications from packaging departments to grade C cleanroom manufacturing area's. I feel I have exceptional experience from my time working in both Abbvie and Vantive healthcare which I could use to help Abbvie Westport achieve its operational goals. I have managed in 3 departments in AbbVie Westport on all shifts and have been involved in a number of projects which have increased production KPI's. I am well versed in the importance of meeting KPI's while keeping patient and employee safety at the forefront of both mine and my teams mind.
