Inspiring Inspector.

It is my pleasure to introduce Elvia! Her story is one that exemplifies resilience and strength, serving as an inspiring example of what can be accomplished through determination and hard work. Growing up in Ecuador, she learned the importance of family values and maintaining a positive attitude early on. In 2001, Elvia and her husband Jose, made a bold decision to move to the United States, driven by the ambition to create a brighter future for themselves and their eventual cherished children—Vivana, Javier, and Allison. Elvia and Jose happily celebrate 35 years of marriage as they look back on an incredible journey and partnership. Elvia’s professional journey began in 2002 when she joined Precision International. She started on the assembly line, placing parts, but her keen eye and willingness to take on more responsibilities quickly set her apart. She was soon tasked with pulling parts from stock and assisting supervisors with various miscellaneous tasks. Determined to improve her skills and broaden her career opportunities, Elvia made it a priority to attend Suffolk Community College to learn English. Understanding that being bilingual would open many doors, she dedicated herself to mastering the language, which would later prove to be a huge advantage in her career. Her hard work and perseverance created opportunity, leading her to a position in the Quality Control (QC) department early on in her collegiate studies. This role challenged her skills and required close attention to detail while fostering collaboration with management and colleagues. Elvia didn’t just excel at her job; she continued to pursue her academic goals relentlessly, earning her degree in 2011—an impressive testament to her ability to follow through on long term commitments. As a QC Inspector, Elvia’s responsibilities are vital to the success of Precision International. She carefully verifies part numbers, measures components, and trains new employees to navigate equipment safely and effectively. Her kindness and mentorship create a supportive environment where everyone feels encouraged to thrive. Elvia collaborates closely with the Engineering department, ensuring that every deviation and tolerance is evaluated effectively, maintaining the high standards that define the quality of our components. Outside of her professional life, Elvia prioritizes her family and cherishes the moments spent with them. Engaging in activities like bowling, ice skating, and basketball not only strengthens their bonds but also reflects the values of support and love that she champions. Elvia’s journey is a powerful reminder of the strength derived from resilience, determination, and family commitment. Her story inspires confidence and courage, uplifting her colleagues and everyone who recognizes the value of hard work and dedication in achieving one’s dreams. We are so grateful to have a team member like Elvia!
