    “I am lucky to have worked with Jim. He is a true leader who is not only interested in managing the Engineering department, but also a leader who is genuinely and highly involved in continuous improvement activities. His engineering expertise, communications skills and knowledge in Lean made him a great asset for Cleveland Track Material’s Lean Transformation. On the outside he is a positive, cheerful person who can get along with anyone, but on the inside he is a go-getter with an incredible work ethic and a drive to succeed. I would have no hesitation in recommending Jim for any position in his field of profession, as well as any other career which he may apply himself to.”
