I accepted the role of master planner in 2023. I was responsible for all macro planning and scheduling for production. I implemented a new planning system, created a new strategic planning indicator, and achieved all KPI targets.

Responsible for KPI performance and people development. Managed diverse teams of 4 crews using data to achieve compatibility within the teams, and make decisions at the ground level. I employ a data driven method based on personality to organize teams in order to achieve autonomy. I achieved this in 3 separate business units. I was responsible for creating and managing all budgets, I managed projects including a rubber dumping delivery system being installed currently, and developed people across 3 diverse cost centers in my time as a business unit leader. Beginning with chemical production facility in 2017, I later took over management of the receiving warehouse as well in 2019. This essentially was managing half the plant. Later in 2019 I was promoted to a rubber production group.

Hired to be part of a new role at the Michelin Starr plant. I was responsible for creating our shift meeting formats and reports that are still followed and used to this day by current flow managers. Saw a 8% increase in performance. I didn't directly manage anyone so I had to coach and influence. I found my coaching style in this role that I would later refine as a business unit leader.

I started with Michelin as an entry level operator.
