Summary

Lean Manufacturing and Productivity Manager - Driving Operational Excellence, Continuous Improvement & Cost Reduction. As a Continuous Improvement and Operations Leader with over 12 years of experience at Forvia, I thrive on transforming complex challenges into streamlined, sustainable solutions. I’ve led high-impact initiatives across global manufacturing environments—driving operational excellence, reducing waste, and empowering cross-functional teams to deliver measurable results. My experience spans multiple countries—including France, Germany, China, and the U.S.—which has shaped my ability to lead diverse teams, adapt to different cultural and operational contexts, and implement improvement strategies that work across borders. My background includes: - A Master’s in Industrial Engineering from UTBM (France), providing a strong foundation in systems optimization and industrial performance. - An MBA from the University of Kansas (KU), sharpening my leadership, financial, and strategic capabilities to align operations with business growth. Guided by curiosity, honesty, and a drive for continuous challenge, I’m always looking for the next opportunity to lead transformation, develop people, and create lasting impact in global operations.
