I help businesses improve workflows, document processes, and eliminate inefficiencies using Lean Six Sigma and practical process-engineering tools. With 4 years of hands-on experience as an Industrial Engineer, I specialize in process improvement, workflow mapping, SOP development, and operational optimization. I’ve worked with cross-functional teams to analyze existing processes, identify bottlenecks, and redesign workflows using swim lane diagrams, value stream mapping (VSM), DMAIC, and root cause analysis. My work focuses on creating clear, easy-to-follow process maps and SOPs that teams can actually use—not just presentations for management. I use Minitab and Excel to support data-driven decisions and ensure improvements are measurable and sustainable. Clients value my ability to simplify complex processes, improve ownership across teams, and reduce rework, delays, and confusion. If you need help with process mapping, SOP creation, workflow optimization, or Lean Six Sigma support, I’d be glad to discuss how I can add value to your project.
