Toyota TPS-Trained Operations & Continuous Improvement Leader
I’m an operations and continuous improvement leader with 17+ years building and deploying TPS-based operating systems in complex manufacturing environments. My foundation was formed inside Toyota’s Operations Management Development Division (OMDD), and I’ve since led transformations at Toyota and Kohler, across final assembly, production control, quality, supply chain, and digital manufacturing. I focus on designing robust daily management, building structured problem-solving capability, and integrating digital tools (MES, digital twin, real-time analytics) without losing genchi genbutsu and frontline Kaizen culture.
