Summary

I’m a logistics graduate with hands-on experience across freight forwarding, road transport, and global trade operations. Through roles at Mainfreight in New Zealand and an internship with Kuehne + Nagel in New York City, I’ve developed a strong understanding of both the physical and strategic sides of the industry—from container and dangerous goods handling to contract auditing, market analysis, and trade negotiations. My background combines operational knowledge with exposure to customer care, finance, and global supply chain dynamics.
