What I'm looking for

I seek an operations-focused role where I can apply forecasting, inventory optimization, and cross-functional collaboration to improve supply chain performance and customer satisfaction.

I am an Industrial Distribution Engineering graduate with practical experience in operations, inventory management, and customer-facing roles. I have led university distribution projects with industry partners, built Excel forecasting tools, and delivered measurable process improvements such as reducing ingredient outages and improving inventory accuracy.

I bring strong communication and leadership skills from committee and team roles, hands-on logistics intern experience, and a commitment to data-driven decision making. I am bilingual in Spanish and English and skilled with Excel, Python, Power BI and collaboration across cross-functional teams to drive operational efficiency.
