I am dedicated to helping organizations achieve their goals through innovative solutions and strategic leadership. I have a unique ability to break these complex challenges into logical execution steps that can be acted on by the organization. I’m what Harvard Business Magazine describes as a Tech/Savvy Humanist. A link to the article can be found here: https://lnkd.in/gFQDF9Jn It is a unique skillset that I am continuing to learn to leverage. Essentially, it’s my ability to focus on the technology side, solving complex challenges by leveraging technology and my understanding that delivering these enhancements to the organization occurs through people. Understanding the \"right approach and sequence\" is key to achieving success in strategic initiatives, which I apply by being “tactical and practical”.Throughout my career, I have held prominent leadership roles, including Vice President of Solutions, Chief Operating Officer, and Vice President of Operations. At B9Creations, I played a key role in the development and implementation of high-resolution DLP 3D printers, which entailed establishing the operational and supply chain systems from the ground up. As Vice President of Solutions and Chief Operating Officer, at B9Creations, I helped to champion the integration of cutting-edge digital manufacturing technologies, ensuring a successful transition to additive manufacturing for diverse industries.What I’m known for Implementation of advanced manufacturing systems, including automation systems, and design for manufacturability. Listening and Crafting Technology Solutions: I have a knack for deeply understanding the company’s and clients\' needs I translate that into actionable solutions that work. Developing and implementing additive technology (DLP) into industry at scale (Jewelry, Dental, Medical Device, Aerospace, etc.) Facility layout optimization and workflow improvements Proven track record of building operational and supply chain systems from the ground up. Successful facility startups and extensive experience in electronics manufacturing.In summary, I am action oriented with an ability to communicate complex technology to all levels of stakeholders in a way that can enable the creation and delivery of an organization\'s technology strategy.
