Currently working in industry as a Department Manager for a steel company, Brian Avery has accomplished, if nothing more, a career track-record that spans several types of dissimilar organizations working in widely differing roles in many industries. Sales management, engineering, sales & marketing, a stint as a six sigma black belt, a Business Development Manager, and a handful of part-time endeavors held concurrent to full-time careers are all part of Mr. Avery's background. He has worked either directly in or as a contractor for: the aerospace industry, petroleum refining, food-processing, automotive, paper manufacturing, steel manufacturing, the chemical industry, medical device companies, consumer products, appliance manufacturing, utility companies, and the printing industry. While Mr. Avery does not advise frequent career changes being so fluid in his own pursuits allowed him to develop effective strategies for finding desired work regardless of experience! He has a deep interest in coaching techniques in pursuit of career opportunities. Mr. Avery has effectively helped others identify opportunity and secure work in positions deemed unlikely. Mr. Avery holds a B.S. in Physics from the University of Oregon and a Masters of Engineering in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Texas at Arlington. He is vocal in his condemnation of current U.S. fiscal policy and keenly aware of the consequences for U.S. manufacturing and in turn the Nation's health. He currently lives in North Alabama with his wife and three children.
