Hi! I'm Jon Dufault!
About Me
I am a Six Sigma Blackbelt who enjoys tackling complex, thorny business problems. I earned my MBA from Cal State Long Beach, and an MS in Statistics from Cal State Fullerton, and have worked in the grocery/food manufacturing industry for over a decade. I bring a knack for tackling problems by synthesizing feedback from stakeholders with statistical methods. I’m systems-oriented, skilled at gaining actionable insights from unstructured and disparate data sources. I’ve built sales forecasting systems from scratch in Python, competitive analysis tools R and SAS, and feedback visualization systems in Javascript. I strive to be a core asset on the team.
I left high school early to enter the workforce during the 2007-2008 recession, working graveyard shifts to support my family when I returned to school. Personal accountability is the bedrock of my personal and professional life.
You’ll find me to be a confident, enthusiastic contributor to the team. My main joy is transforming data and experiences into insights that fuel growth. I’ve devised inventory rotation systems that have saved $15,000 in lost product, used bootstrapping and simulation to tighten spec limits on bottled water, and mentored greenbelts to achieve over $150,000 in cost reduction.
