## About

```text
At TBM Carriers, I directed supply chain operations across the U.S., Mexico, and Canada, supporting 7,500+ annual shipments and a 200+ truck fleet. I generated $240K in year-one cost avoidance through fuel hedging and vendor negotiations, and predictive analytics helped reduce fleet maintenance spend by 17%.

Today, I advise small business owners on workflow standardization and process improvement, building practical KPI dashboards and Excel tools for sales, inventory, and staffing. I also served as Operations Coordinator – Fitness & Wellness at The University of Texas at San Antonio, where I built BI reporting infrastructure that cut report preparation time from about 60 to 20 minutes.
