I worked with Tim in the Wisconsin Faucets Operation for the last 12 years. During that time Tim worked as a Quality Technician. He has an excellent knowledge of CMM programming and has an outstanding understanding of geometric dimensioning and tolerancing. Tim helped me on numerous occasions to layout parts utilizing the CMM and with other measurement tools like the optical comparator. Tim was my go-to-guy if I had any geometric dimension questions or needed any feature of a part measured. He strives to complete tasks accurately and on-time. I am confident Tim will add significant value to any organization.
