Chief Ruckus Maker
Phil Britton
I wear a lot of hats, literally and figuratively. I went from a degree in media production (music minor) to medical device manufacturing (quality management systems) to food systems (on-farm food safety) to freelance consulting. The last 10+ years have been a parade of different projects, but the thread running through them all is this idea of building new and better systems. Whether it was implementing new labeling procedures and software, putting together training for live audio production, designing new on-farm food safety certification models, or helping businesses become better operators through quality management principles, my goal is always to simply help make things better.
I’m a proud Yooper, and if I’m not in the office I’m usually in the woods or in Lake Superior, exploring this beautiful part of Earth with my family.
