What I'm looking for

I seek a role in materials or supply chain planning that values data-driven inventory optimization, cross-functional collaboration, and opportunities to reduce waste and improve working capital.

I am a materials planning and continuous improvement professional with hands-on experience leading teams and optimizing inventory for global manufacturers and brands. I have driven measurable reductions in waste and inventory levels, managed supplier networks and SKUs, and implemented KPI reporting that improved visibility and decision-making.

My background in industrial and statistical engineering, Lean Six Sigma Green Belt certification, and fluency in English and Spanish support my data-driven approach to production continuity, cost savings, and process standardization. I thrive collaborating across procurement, operations, and production to deliver on-time production and improve working capital efficiency.
