Summary
Who I Am : I don't just manage production-I own the floor and the field. With over 7+ years of hands-on experience across both factory and on-site projects, I've worked on PU/UV finishes, metal and wood coatings, and solved real-time challenges where precision meets pressure. I've led teams, met tight deadlines, and built smarter systems-like designing a local thinner recycling setup that saved over 10,000 liters and cut costs significantly. Whether it's the shop floor or a luxury site, bring structure, and never settle for average. If you're looking for someone who's been in the dust, the booth, and the boardroom-let's talk.
