keynote speech

"I'm thrilled that I have the option to never have to buy pants again - I can make them with a perfect fit!"

"It's fascinating to see what goes into garment design and have a real understanding. It means I am free to make whatever I want now."

"You've taught me more than just about the fashion world. Your confidence in me has helped me become more confident in my work and art as well."

"On behalf of the American Apparel and Footwear Association, thank you for providing your insights and experience with implementing LEAN. Your anecdotes and the way you overcame the hurdles in the process to achieve the benefits of a LEAN production facility were of great interest to our attendees. It is not often that we have a chance to hear someone who has actually transitioned a factory such as you have."
