As an Operations and Continuous Improvement leader, Christians expertise and dedication to lean implementation has been exceptional. Christian’s knowledge of the processes has been instrumental in the continuous improvement of all metrics for both Commercial and NPD products. He has been an integral part of the smooth transition of several products from the NPD phases to the Commercial launch. In addition to his work with product launches and continuous improvements, Christian has also taken the time to mentor several green belt trainees, aiding them in acquiring their Green Belt certification. Christian understands the importance of fostering a change culture and growing the overall knowledge of Lean implementation and continuous improvement at the site. Christian has also been an excellent project manager. Not only did he individually own projects that had financial implications to the site, but he also worked with other C.I. Leader and other project manager to ensure their projects would be completed and have a positive impact on the organization. Lastly, Christian has also proved himself as an effective leader on the production floor. During his time as Production Supervisor and Assistant Production Manager, Christian was always able to foster a goal-oriented culture, getting the most out of every production floor associate. He is well respected on the production floor as a go-to leader and someone with extensive knowledge of all aspects of the operation. Overall, Christian is an excellent Operations and Continuous Improvement leader both on and off the production floor. He would be a benefit and immediate game changer for any business looking for a dynamic leader to take their performance to the next level.

I had the opportunity to manage Christian directly. Christian has the rare ability to be able to lead teams on a level where he always kept it personal and really connected with each of his employees. He was able to always be counted on to have full control over what was a very large 24/7 operation for me spanning close to 400 personnel. He was often times my "go-to" person for most anything, I could without question trust him with that. Christian also possesses the ability to learn processes deeply which is invaluable in both building credibility in teams and being able to pivot strategies to overcome. I couldn't recommend him more highly and look forward to watching his continued success.
