Ken is probably the best statistician and LSS trainer I’ve worked with in my 35+ years in pharma. In addition to doing an outstanding job training our black belts as part of an LSS program, he assisted with the statistical evaluation of several complicated deviations that ultimately allowed us to release the batches in a compliant manner. Ken is very approachable and easy to work with, making him a great partner for a variety of projects.
