What has been the most difficult thing you have over come in your career? For me it is patience. I am over eager to learn and try out something; though many people love students, if there are some base skills and circumstances which are not met, it can be unproductive or dangerous to do some tasks in manufacturing. Example: Using a crane and not having the experience or wherewithal to know how to use it correctly. Side Note: sorry for not being active lately. I have been preparing to take the CQT exam tomorrow (Wish me luck!). After that, I am going to do a deep dive into CQI's handbook and make some content around that and some of the topics.

Hello everyone, this is Mia. I just joined this group. I have been working in a food manufacturing company (we make bread) as a food regulatory compliance specialist. I am currently studying for ASQ's certified Quality Auditor exam in December 2025. Happy to find study group here.

What is the hardest thing you worked on and why? For me, it was working on some high standard rocket parts. Production was struggling to dial these parts in due to how complex the geometry was. The hard part was dealing with the frustration everyone had with these parts. The best part was when we kept our cool we often made lots of headway to getting these parts at full production

Hey Everyone, I come from design engineering background and have always worked in custom product manufacturing organizations in food processing equipment, office furniture, store fixtures and elevator fixtures industries. I would like to stay in touch with manufacturing from design perspective. I currently work as a fractional chief strategy officer for custom product design and manufacturing companies and help them with their corporate and operational strategy formulations. I also have a mechanical engineering degree, MBA degree, lean six sigma black belt and system engineering certifications. I look forward to collaborating and interacting in this group with you all.
