Project Manager at RR Donnelley
PMP | Black Belt Six Sigma | MBA | Project Manager at RRD
The thing I love most about my job is change, it's the only way to learn new things. It scares most people, but I thrive off of it. I have experience in change management in many different industries such as Oil and Gas, Global Aerospace and Defense and most recently in Individual & Family Services and have implemented successful process changes in each industry.
