My career at Measured Progress has allowed me the opportunity to be involved in all aspects of management including cross-departmental, sub-contractor and client relations, product schedules, process review and improvement, materials review and production, meeting facilitation, data management, technology initiatives implementation, manual production, shipping and receiving, and customer service. I am a strong believer in constantly growing my skills and finding new ways to promote efficiency. I have worked for Measured Progress since 2005 in various roles on both general education and alternate assessment state contracts. I have developed a clear understanding of client needs and requirements through my service center experience. In addition to my primary responsibilities, I have been involved in company-wide initiatives to improve efficiency and productivity.
