Certified Master Black Belt (two-year, two-tier US-based program) and Agile PM with 12+ years of experience solving complex manufacturing challenges in both high-volume and R&D environments.
My work focuses on increasing yield, reducing scrap, and boosting throughput using data-driven strategies, structured problem-solving, and cross-functional leadership. This approach consistently delivers tangible outcomes aligned with both operational and business KPIs.
I’ve successfully managed projects in the automotive and home appliance sectors, driving results across both pilot and full-scale production environments.

Key Expertise:
• Yield Optimization & Throughput Increase
• FPY, Scrap & Defect Rate Reduction

• SPC, Cpk/Ppk, Cm/Cmk Studies
• Agile PM (Scrum), DMAIC (end-to-end)

How I Work:
I combine deep technical know-how with agile execution and clear business logic.
My optimization philosophy is grounded in clarity, data quality, and actionable simplicity.

Approach influenced by:
“The best analysis is the simplest analysis which gives the needed insight.” – Wheeler
"The quality of a decision can never be better than the quality of the information on which it's based." - Sculley
