Leveraging extensive experience in management, electronics, mechanics, pneumatics, robotics, inspection, repair, research and development, and leadership, I aim to become a key member of Copan’s Quality team. My expertise includes managing and executing quality assurance activities to ensure compliance with ISO 13485:2016, ISO 9001:2015 standards, and FDA 21 CFR 820 regulations. Currently, I handle preventive and extraordinary maintenance for Copan’s biotech production equipment. My previous roles have honed my skills in troubleshooting, preventive maintenance, and process improvement. Additionally, my military background as a Medical Equipment Repair Sergeant has strengthened my expertise in biomedical equipment repair and quality assurance.

I am pursuing a Master of Business Administration, expected to complete in 2025, to enhance my leadership and strategic management skills. I also plan to achieve certifications such as CQE, CBA, and Six Sigma, preparing me to drive quality and efficiency in product development and manufacturing processes. My goal is to significantly contribute to Copan Diagnostics by utilizing my skills and knowledge to ensure the highest standards of quality and compliance.

I am currently pursuing a Master of Business Administration (MBA) at National University, with an expected completion date in 2025. This program aims to enhance my leadership and strategic management skills.

I hold a Bachelor of Science in Technology Management from DeVry University, completed in 2024, which provided me with a solid foundation in the principles of technology management and its applications in various industries.

My technical expertise is grounded in my military training, where I completed the Biomedical Equipment Repair (68A) course at Fort Sam Houston, TX, in 2015. This course focused on the repair and maintenance of a wide range of biomedical equipment.

Additionally, I completed the Veterinary Food Inspection (68R) course at Fort Sam Houston, TX, in 2007, which equipped me with skills in quality assurance and inspection in the veterinary field.

I also hold an Associate of Science in Electronics Engineering/Computer Science from Anthem College, Phoenix, AZ, completed in 2001. This program provided a comprehensive education in electronics engineering and computer science fundamentals.

These educational experiences collectively enhance my capability to manage quality assurance activities and ensure compliance with industry standards and regulations.
