I considered myself as a Continuous Improvement professional with 10 years of combined experience across Canadian furniture manufacturing and Nigerian real estate development, including seven years in a leadership capacity. Six months of formal Toyota Production System (TPS) training with hands-on experience in standard work, communication boards, structured problem-solving systems, root cause analysis, and sustaining improvements. Skilled in collecting, compiling, and analyzing performance and financial data labour, waste, and OEE to drive cost reduction and manufacturing optimization, tracking project progress with project management tools, and leading cross-functional Continuous Improvement project teams.

A postgraduate credential in Business Analytics and a BSc in Economics provide a strong data-driven, root-cause approach to shop-floor problem-solving.
