At Teck Metals Limited, I manage high-priority and RUSH purchase orders, coordinating with suppliers and internal stakeholders to expedite critical materials and help minimize operational downtime.

I work with Maintenance, Operations, and Warehouse personnel to prioritize urgent requirements. I also evaluate quotations and sourcing options, resolve supply issues, and administer orders from requisition through delivery.

As a Peer Support Team Member at Teck Metals Limited, I provide confidential peer support and connect employees with appropriate resources. I’m completing ongoing training in active listening, mental health awareness, and peer support practices.

Earlier, I coordinated construction projects at Wallin Company and supported property and tenant services at Triovest Realty Advisors. I’m currently completing Procurement and Supply Chain Management through SCMP.
