keith.poole@ssfhs.org  
  Keith has been a member of ASQ since 1997 and is an ASQ CQE and CSSBB. He holds a Bachelor of Engineering (Metallurgy) from the Technical University of Nova Scotia (TUNS) and a Bachelor of Science (Mathematics) from Dalhousie University, also in Nova Scotia, Canada. While attending school Keith worked on a research project at Trenton Works steel forge in Trenton, Nova Scotia where the chief metallurgist strongly encouraged him to learn more about the field of Quality.

While completing his Engineering requirements in 1999, Keith worked full-time at Sydney Steel in Sydney, Nova Scotia as an ISO Certification Specialist. Here he saw the company through successful certification to the ISO 9002:1994 quality standard. His work at Sydney Steel led to a position as an Operating Resource with Ispat Inland. Keith remained at Ispat Inland for three years, where he became a qualified internal lead auditor and received Six Sigma Black Belt training.

In 2002, Keith moved to Merkle-Korff Industries as a Quality Assurance Engineer where he specialized in statistics and Six Sigma projects.

Keith then worked for over three years as Certification Coordinator at NAVTEQ in downtown Chicago, the world's number one supplier of digital map data. He achieved and maintained certification for all North American operations (including over 50 field offices) to the ISO 9001:2000 quality standard, and a portion of it to ISO/TS 16949:2002.

Keith currently the Corporate Manager of Lean Six Sigma for Sisters of St. Francis Healthcare Services, who own and operate 12 hospitals and dozens of other facilities in Indiana and Illinois including physician offices, medical test labs, and long-term care facilities.

Keith's next goals are to complete his Masters of Science in Quality Assurance at Calumet College of St. Joseph, and to become an ASQ Certified Quality Manager.
