What I Specialize In
Meet Kathryne
Lean / Six Sigma Black Belt
Business Process & Productivity Specialist
As a certified Lean/Six Sigma Black Belt with 10 years of experience implementing Lean Thinking and Lean Tools on the production floor blah blah blah
I began my professional career as a Process Engineer in Aerospace Manufacturing, where I was schooled in Lean Manufacturing and Process Optimization, becoming a Lean Six Sigma Black Belt at Lockheed Martin Aeronautics. I then went on to apply these skills as an in-home professional organizer, assisting people to become more orderly and efficient in their homes and businesses.
Based on the skills and knowledge I obtained in the factory as well as the work I've done helping clients get 'more organized', I am now working with organizations to ensure that their businesses or workgroups are functioning with the highest level of productivity and efficiency.
"Lean isn't just about manufacturing. It's about continuous improvement, applying lean tools and principles to every aspect of your business."
