BLOOMFIELD HILLS

En résumé

My professionnal background in Production organization allowed me to acquire capabilities in production management, including deliveries optimization, quality and cost efficiency, but also including customer relationship for product defintions and needs.
This experience, made in Automotive Industry for different departments such as Production, Project Developments, Manufacturing or Methods, has been completed by some opportunities in foreign countries like USA or China. This gave me opportunities to develop my flexibility and understanding of the problems taking into account cultural constraints.
