Production operations leader who cut overtime 75% with Lean and raised laser factory output 20% at a medical device manufacturer.

  • Ran multiple cost centers in the component-building business unit of a medical device manufacturer (2020–2023) — applied Lean thinking to capacity models to cut overtime by 75%, and used Theory of Constraints to raise laser factory output 20% and a stent line 40%.
  • Commanded a basic combat training battery as an Army captain — 18 drill sergeants, 480 total personnel and equipment, $2.6M+ of assets and a $45K annual operating budget — and led the team through 7 training cycles that graduated 1,600 Soldiers.
  • M.S. in Supply Chain Management, University of Minnesota (2023); B.S., United States Military Academy at West Point (2009). Master's capstone helped a team right-size a company's inventory, saving $5.6M on one line, and received a perfect score.
