Brampton, Ontario, Canada
I am a packaging engineering technician graduate with hands-on experience in packaging operations, manufacturing environments, quality inspection, and production support. I have developed practical skills in packaging design, testing, documentation, and process improvement through academic projects and industry experience. During my experience as a packaging associate at Stampede Culinary Partners, I worked in a fast-paced food manufacturing environment, supporting packaging operations, quality checks, product handling, and safety procedures. I gained experience following production standards, maintaining accuracy, and working collaboratively to achieve daily goals. Through my packaging engineering technician program at Conestoga College, I have worked on hands-on projects including child-resistant packaging design, packaging prototypes, laboratory testing, and technical documentation. I have experience with packaging concepts, material evaluation, ArtiosCAD, and creating technical presentations and infographics. I am passionate about packaging innovation, manufacturing excellence, and continuous improvement. I enjoy learning new technologies, solving problems, and contributing to teams focused on quality, efficiency, and customer satisfaction.
