What I'm looking for

I'm looking to apply my food and beverage manufacturing experience in material planning, inventory accuracy, data analysis, root-cause investigation, and process improvement while supporting reliable production operations.

I've supported food and beverage manufacturing at Carolina Beverage Group across material planning, production posting, quality, inventory, and supplier coordination.

As Material Planner for the Monster Energy account, I planned cans, lids, trays, and bundling film around production schedules and warehouse capacity. I monitored inbound shipments and inventory accuracy, partnered with shipping and receiving, and secured approved packaging substitutions during supply shortages.

I helped build Carolina Beverage Group's Production Posting Department from one employee to seven, documenting workflows, developing SOPs, optimizing processes, and training team members. I investigated raw-material and finished-goods discrepancies, supported copacker relationships, and used SAP and Excel formulas and pivot tables to improve data traceability and accuracy.

My earlier quality roles included product and water testing, ATP and allergen swabbing, environmental testing, ingredient tracking, warehousing, and production equipment operation. I also bring administrative systems experience from Fallstown Baptist Church, where I implemented ChurchTeams workflows and manage office operations, financial records, communications, website, and event marketing.
