Message

At A.P. Moller - Maersk, I lead North America demand planning and forecast accuracy for container availability. I built the AMR E&E Hub site and automated dashboard suite, reducing report time by more than 85%.

As Finance Business Partner for North America Liner Operations, I partnered on a USD 600 M OpEx scope and designed the EMR dashboard and Service Delivery framework adopted globally. I also worked across ROM and Flow teams to maximize equipment utilization.

Earlier, I directed finance and administration at Grupos Kreativos, S.A., and coordinated supply at Bayer. Across finance, planning, and operations, I’ve focused on making performance visible and turning financial data into practical decisions.
