I lead reliable manufacturing utilities, maintenance programs, and capital engineering projects.

Dominican Republic
Message

I'm leading facilities operations at Eaton after nearly a decade directing mechanical utilities and reliability for Medtronic's 14,000 m2 medical manufacturing facility. I manage critical HVAC, compressed air, water treatment, emergency power, predictive maintenance, contractors, and capital improvements to keep production infrastructure running reliably.

I've delivered utility upgrades, HVAC commissioning, automation projects, and plant expansions across manufacturing, power generation, and heavy infrastructure. From restoring power during a generator failure with a MW-scale rental unit to reducing fuel costs by 30% through an LNG/Propane conversion, I combine hands-on mechanical engineering, project controls, budgets, safety, and regulatory compliance to improve operations.
