What I'm looking for

I seek a hybrid role where I can apply operations, supply chain and financial modeling expertise to scale logistics or consumer goods, lead cross-functional teams, and drive data-driven cost and revenue improvements.

I am a Business Operations Analyst who scales logistics and consumer goods operations using data-driven financial models, supply-chain optimization, and cross-functional leadership. I focus on measurable revenue growth and operational efficiency.

At New England Logistics I managed dispatch teams coordinating 1,000+ daily deliveries across five states, supported $3M in last-mile deliveries, and drove 200% YoY revenue growth with positive EBITDA. I built expansion financial models, forecasted annual budgets that led to a 15% cost reduction, optimized pricing to increase driver takeout by 10% and company profit by 20%, and integrated Rx systems to double operational efficiency.

In consumer goods, I built an 80-ingredient nutritional database, improved international-to-U.S. supply chain accuracy to eliminate shortages and raised profit margins by 25% while securing B2B accounts. As a co-founder I won a $50k McCloskey Business Plan Competition, led financial planning for a $25M investment scenario, negotiated national distribution contracts, and implemented supplier verification across 120 suppliers.

I hold a B.A. in Economics (GPA 3.7, Magna Cum Laude) with a minor in International Relations and coursework in econometrics and managerial economics. I bring technical skills in SQL, Tableau, Power BI, SAP and financial modeling, and I thrive in fast-paced, ambiguous environments where analytics inform strategic decision-making.
