I lead large‑scale transformations at the intersection of manufacturing, automation, and AI, building unattended, high‑performance production systems that scale globally. Over 15 years, I’ve driven end‑to‑end programs across complex, multi‑site environments - turning strategy into deployed reality through real‑time quality, advanced automation, and zero‑touch operations. I’ve built and led diverse global teams, scaled enterprise technology platforms, and managed >$250M in capital programs, delivering sustained productivity, quality, and cost impact. My strength lies in simplifying complexity and accelerating the move from pilots to scaled operations, ensuring technology decisions translate into measurable business results.
Leading P&G’s global transformation toward unattended, autonomous manufacturing, owning the end‑to‑end operating model across automation, digital, quality, and work systems. Currently orchestrating deliberately instrumented pilot sites as learning systems to harden architectures, define scale criteria, and de‑risk global rollout. Accountable for scaling solutions across the manufacturing network to eliminate night‑shift dependency, materially increase productivity, and improve operational resilience.
Led global deployment of AI‑enabled, real‑time manufacturing systems, scaling solutions across >75% of production sites worldwide. Converted AI and machine‑learning capabilities into closed‑loop quality and operational decision systems, delivering sustained quality improvement and structural cost reduction.
Engineering leader for Pampers Europe, accountable for regional cost productivity, manufacturing systems, and control infrastructure. Delivered multi‑million‑dollar annual savings by modernizing power, control, and information systems and accelerating execution of regional product and capacity initiatives.
Diploma thesis focused on high‑speed manufacturing process optimization. Early engineering roles building hands‑on expertise in machinery, diagnostics, and system commissioning.
Working student in Balancing & Diagnostic Systems, contributing to commissioning of complex test equipment and development of machine documentation and operating concepts.
