Danette La Torre
@danettelatorre
Detail-oriented administrative professional specializing in order processing, QA, and logistics coordination.
What I'm looking for
I am an experienced administrative and logistics professional with a strong background in order processing, quality assurance, and documentation control across pharmaceutical and retail supply chains. I consistently ensure regulatory and specification compliance while managing shipments, paperwork, and vendor communications.
My career highlights include QA batch review and COA creation in a pharmaceutical manufacturing environment, coordinating complex routing and AS400 release processes for logistics, and handling high-volume order processing via EDI, email, and fax for major retailers. I bring proven skills in document control, label proofing, and resolving production or shipment issues.
I am bilingual (Spanish/English) with strong computer literacy across Microsoft Office, AS400, Lotus Notes, EyeC, and Adobe/graphics tools, and I thrive in fast-paced, detail-driven roles where accuracy and teamwork matter.
