Bio
Sonia Garrido, MBA
I haven’t met anyone as determined and hard working as Maria. She was the QA Director at Whitsons Culinary Group where I work, and she was instrumental in the achievement of the BRC certification with the highest grade in 2012. Besides being an expert in quality assurance policies and regulations, Maria is the kind of supervisor that mentors her team. She is constantly encouraging her team to learn and grow professionally. She is enthusiastic and has the can-do positive attitude necessary in a leadership role. She is a well-rounded professional and leader. She earns my highest recommendation!
Jean Price Vixama
Until last year February, I have worked with Maria for a couple years. I found her to be consistently pleasant, tackling all assignments with dedication and a smile. She has successfully developed several QA plans for our company that have resulted in better quality of our products. During her tenure, we saw a decrease in complaints. The trend was a direct result of the plans implemented by Maria. Though she was an asset to our Quality control efforts, Maria was also extraordinarily helpful in other areas of the company. In addition to writing effective training modules for Safety Department, Maria assumed a leadership role in meetings, inspiring and motivating other employees. I highly recommend Maria for employment. She is a team player and would make a great asset to any organization. Sincerely, Jean Price Vixama Sanitation Asst. Manager Hostess Brand Products
