What I'm looking for

I'm seeking to grow into a regional or global Trade Compliance role at a multinational company, and I'm open to remote and international opportunities.

At Donaldson, I lead export compliance operations and support import operations, ensuring conformity with applicable trade laws and regulations. I also monitor freight and customs clearance activities and oversee provider performance.

I analyze and apply tax benefits and international trade agreements, coordinate certificates of origin, and manage compliance KPIs. I also negotiate service-provider quotes and maintain Oracle system data quality.

Previously, as a Customs Clearance Analyst with JAS Worldwide, I supported import and export customs clearance in-house at Donaldson. I coordinated cargo pickup, shipment tracking, and DU-E/DI declaration submissions.

At Parason Machinery, I managed end-to-end export operations for clients across Mexico, Argentina, and Colombia, and coordinated back-to-back processes with headquarters in India. Earlier roles at Wacker Neuson Group gave me experience in trade documentation, NCM/HS classification, SAP invoice entry, and import and export processes.
