About

I am currently 42 working full time as a corporate scheduler. I have many achievements in my career that have catapulted me up the corporate ladder. I graduated Suma Cum Lauda with my Bachelor of Applied Arts and Sciences in 2018 and decided to pursue my master's in industrial management. I am approximately halfway through my master's still maintaining academic excellence. I am on the board of the benevolence committee through my employer and have served for over 6 years. I also am on the board for the Cattle Barrons Ball, a charity that raises money for the American Cancer Society.
I graduated Suma Cum Lauda, while working full time with a wife of 21 years and three children. I was 37 when I graduated with my bachelor's degree. This degree opened the door for me to utilize my true potential. I have since managed a maintenance program, implementing key element of Lean Six Sigma. I now am over several schedulers at a corporate level and leading our PMO (project management organization) in planning and scheduling. I am currently working to obtain my master's degree in industrial management, so that I can be of further value to myself and my employer. My life goals are ever changing. As I achieve a goal, I set other goals. Currently my life goal is to achieve my master's degree by the end of this year. After that, who knows what my next goal might be.
