What I'm looking for

I am seeking a full-time supply chain role after Fall 2025 graduation focused on strategic sourcing, cost reduction, analytics-driven process improvement, and opportunities for cross-functional leadership and growth.

I am a supply chain and finance undergraduate with internship experience delivering measurable cost savings, process improvements, and analytics-driven solutions in manufacturing, retail, and industrial settings.

I have led cross-functional sourcing and logistics projects that generated multimillion-dollar savings, built dashboards and visual analyses using Tableau and Power BI, and implemented inventory and vendor-audit solutions using SAP and 3PL portals.

I hold a Lean Six Sigma Green Belt, Microsoft Specialist certifications, and fluency in English and Spanish, and I am seeking a full-time supply chain role after graduation where I can drive strategic sourcing, operational efficiency, and data-driven decision making.
