To continue my interest in researching, developing requirements for, and delivering to production, specialized equipment, systems or services for the aerospace industry as a Supply Chain Specialist.
As my resume shows, I have more than 15 years experience in aerospace to include 8 years in quality assurance, to include supply chain management, and 7 years in engineering for production operations and value engineering initiatives.
I have supported both military and commercial programs to include the A-12 Composite Fighter, B-1 and B-2 Bombers, C-17 Cargo Plane, F-16 Fighter, Space Shuttle, Boeing 727, 737, 747, 767, Gulfstream IV, V and McDonnell Douglas DC-10.
My versatile work history illustrates my capability to analyze data/information and identify underlying principles, by breaking down that information into separate parts in order to resolve quality and technical problems with materials, parts or processes. The results of my decision and judgement making skills are reflected in my work experience by shortening process flow times, reducing inventories, identifying disconnects in contract pricing and enhancing the aircraft?s performance.
