What I'm looking for
I’m a results-driven operations and parts management professional with 9 years of progressive experience across military service, heavy equipment, and agricultural machinery. I’ve advanced from Abrams Tank Systems Maintainer to Parts Team Lead and Parts Sales roles, consistently delivering measurable performance in fast-paced environments. Currently looking to change career paths for a new challenge.
In the U.S. Army, I maintained and repaired M1A2 Abrams main battle tanks, achieving 95%+ operational readiness across a fleet of 14 vehicles valued at over $400M. I diagnosed and resolved complex mechanical, hydraulic, and electrical failures using technical manuals and advanced diagnostic equipment, reducing average vehicle downtime by 40%.
At RDO Equipment Company, I spearheaded parts department operations for a high-volume location, managing inventory valued at over $500K while maintaining 98% order fulfillment accuracy and reducing backorders by 25%. I led and mentored a team of 3 parts specialists, improving productivity by 30% and reducing customer wait times by 20%.
I also optimized parts procurement and inventory management by leveraging RDO’s dealer management system—cutting excess stock by 15% and achieving a 99% same-day fulfillment rate for critical components. I bring a disciplined, mission-focused work ethic, strong communication, and detail-oriented problem solving to streamline operations and drive outcomes.
