I serve as a member of the Governing Committee. This is an advisory role.DOT Quality Services is a specialized firm that develops standards of performance, builds quality systems, and creates and conducts supplier audit programs.Our supplier qualification audits are conducted by experienced quality professionals with technical and quality system certification credentials. More importantly, all supplier evaluations are done with a customer’s perspective to specific contracts, state specifications, and industry codes.DOTQS produces detailed reports that contain understandable objective evidence to support observations. The report provides a means of “seeing and hearing” what was observed during the audit, which enables you to make better decisions about suppliers, and which enhances confidence in supplier selection. In addition, the effectiveness of the supplier’s quality system is documented for future reference. More information is available at www.dotqs.com

In this position I covered a variety of geographies, customers and solution sets. Asked to perform a variety of roles - Sales, Customer Success and Business Development - I did so cheerfully and with solid results. The startup mentality and the opportunity to work with a solid team of diverse individuals across the US, Canada, EMEA and India created a deep sense of accomplishment and satisfaction. Customers, fellow employees and partners became friends and will long be cherished. I made the decision to take a break in August 2021 for a well-deserved rest.
