A little about my career path: Began my career as process control engineer for a large manufacturing company
Had the opportunity to move into leadership position for an engineering group
Leveraged my engineering education and leadership skills to hold other leadership positions for engineering/maintenance organizations, operations, and now leading a large worldwide manufacturing operation.
My vision for the future is to bring in new products in new industries into the factories for which I am responsible.
Ask me about: My early career in process control engineering - pneumatics, analog electronics, and assembler code might seem like the stone age now
Why I pursued a management/leadership career
Working for a large company vs. a small company
