Summary

7 years of experience in the Supply Chain field, with a particular focus on production, manufacturing, and distribution. During that period, I have invariably demonstrated leadership and proficiency. During the COVID-19 pandemic, I effectively managed a team, ensuring equanimity and stability amidst worldwide supply chain constraints. I directed a comprehensive network-wide allocation strategy to optimize supply management and mitigate potential shortages. All the while optimizing profitability on active business by seeking to improve existing rates as well as exploring alternative cost-effective solutions. I have maintained healthy, resourceful relationships with both domestic and international accounts such as, but not limited to, Energizer, Dolium, Ball, Fixatti, and Boeing. My expansive background equips me with a keen understanding of the dynamic and evolving global supply chain industry
