Results-driven logistics operations manager specializing in air cargo and safety.
What I'm looking for
I’m an accomplished, results-driven Manager with 14 years of dedicated experience within time-critical logistics and air cargo operations at FedEx. I’ve progressed from a Material Handler to a Swing Shift Manager by consistently demonstrating leadership, operational excellence, and operational procedure discipline.
In my current role as Swing Shift Manager, I manage critical evening operations with a focus on the safe loading/unloading of hot spare planes and bulk freight. I oversee aircraft verification, flight coding, inbound/outbound organization, and strict adherence to cold chain freight protocols—while minimizing operational delays through direct nightly feeder ramp operations and tug support.
Previously, as an Offload Manager, I led a high-performing offload team responsible for full-cycle employee relations, including hiring, coaching, skills development, recognition, and disciplinary actions up to termination. I championed a zero-exception, safety-first culture and routinely exceeded operational targets using key metrics such as block to start, block to stage, and block to finish, while eliminating high-level (HL) and unacceptable (U) delays during outbound operations.
I bring hands-on operational expertise from roles including Ramp Agent, Material Handler (Offload), DG Agent (Dangerous Goods Agent), and courier logistics, including accurate Weight & Balance calculations and time-sensitive workflow optimization. I’m seeking a Senior Manager role to leverage ramp and hub operations expertise, drive continuous improvement, and mentor future leaders through high standards of professionalism and integrity.
