Ensure compliance with safety regulations and quality standards. Oversee procurement of materials and equipment. Manage project documentation and reporting.

I managed an essential and critical maintenance training program that trained and certified 740 technicians annually. I directed a team of 5 training managers and 9 instructors, managed the resources and programs and created 30-,60- and 90-day training forecasts. I am available for a SkillBridge opportunity beginning June of 2023.➟ After I identified and overcame scheduling obstacles, cross-certified additional instructors and created student flow plans, I reduced overdue training by 43% and boosted technician qualifications by 66%. ➟ I led a 28-person project team that reviewed the content of 27 courses. After updating technical details and standardizing course materials, I saved 1K annual training hours. I oversaw the entire project from scope to completion. ➟ Overseeing multiple Lean Six Sigma projects, I improved equipment availability ~10% and identified an opportunity to use training resources more efficiently.➟ I averted a critical program collapse by identifying a shortage of qualified technicians and obtaining the resources and funding that eliminated the skills gap and increased capabilities by 75%.➟ By analyzing metrics and tracking key performance indicators (KPIs), I identified positive/negative trends and briefed executive leaders on results and provided recommendations for improvements.

I managed a team of up to 11 instructors and ensured the highest quality of instruction and course materials were delivered to 1,200 students annually. After serving as a trainer for 4 months, I was promoted to training manager. ➟ Serving as a project manager, I developed and revised curriculum, training materials, written tests and students assessments while incorporating Instructional System Design (ISD) methodologies. ➟ I led a new initiative that cross-trained 208 employees in order to create rapid-response teams in the event of an emergency. The project was so successful that it was used as a best practice by the DoD and implemented across all branches of the military.➟ I reduced the student failure rate by 97% after implementing proactive measures such as increasing the quality of instruction, enabling targeted teaching and addressing issues with recommended solutions before students took their end-of-the year evaluations. ➟ After developing improved processes and validating training plans, I cut staffing requirements in half and returned 5K annual productivity hours. Training program efficiency increased 10% after I provided 89 workflows to better allocate staffing resources.➟ I used a variety of teaching methods to clearly communicate complex technical concepts such as maintenance system theory, operation, component removal/installation and troubleshooting analysis.➟ I led a 30-person project team and served as a technical expert in a 6-month course rewrite project that reduced OJT time 75% with increased training effectiveness. I reviewed all materials, identified redundant or outdated content, improved the training quality and helped to rollout the updates at 10 locations.

Leading a team of up to 270 technicians across 10 maintenance specialties, we maintained, repaired and inspected a fleet of critical equipment valued at up to $3B+. Providing technical expertise and teaching troubleshooting skills, I served as a mentor and guide. I directed the workflow to meet daily goals and delegated tasks to meet the needs of the customer.➟ Working in a dynamic, fast-paced and deadline-driven environment, I coordinated the completion of 10K+ annual preventive maintenance and emergency repairs. ➟ I created a cohesive work environment through daily team meetings that clarified priorities and educated team on safety hazards and facilitated consistent communication between all shifts.➟ Serving as a project manager, I led high-visibility projects that enabled the team to prepare equipment without sacrificing quality or safety and achieve record-breaking daily production goals. ➟ Performing maintenance QA inspections and audits, I made critical decisions as the final approving authority that had a direct impact on equipment safety and availability.➟ I audited the team’s safety practices to ensure OSHA, HazMat procedures and personal protective equipment (PPE) guidelines were followed. I anticipated and controlled hazards to mitigate risks.➟ After performing trend analysis, I used the data to recognize deficiencies, identify adverse trends, isolate faults and determine process improvement opportunities.➟ I coordinated resources through the forecasting and allocation of personnel, parts, equipment and supplies. The comprehensive maintenance plan I created ensured production goals were met.
