Production Planner @ Naprotek
About
Production Planning professional with 15+ years of experience spanning operations, scheduling, and business management, including high-mix PCB manufacturing and full-cycle business ownership. Currently serving as a Production Planner in a high-reliability manufacturing environment supporting defense, medical, space, and advanced technology sectors.In my current role, I manage and execute production schedules supporting 100+ work orders per month across NPI, repeat, and quick-turn production. I work within the ManEx ERP system to align materials, capacity, and production flow while maintaining schedule integrity in a fast-paced environment.I have progressed through roles of increasing responsibility, including Shipping Clerk and Shipping Supervisor, which gave me a strong understanding of end-to-end operational flow—from material movement to production execution to scheduling control.Previously, I owned and operated a food business for 15 years, where I managed staffing, scheduling, inventory, customer demand variability, and day-to-day operations. That experience built a strong foundation in decision-making under constraints, customer service, and operational discipline.I am focused on improving flow, increasing on-time delivery performance, and building predictable, efficient production systems.
