What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters professional growth and values strategic decision-making.

I am a dedicated procurement specialist with a strong background in strategic budget management and contract negotiation. My experience at the City of Fresno has equipped me with the skills to drive cost savings and enhance vendor selection processes, achieving a remarkable 15% reduction in selection time through competitive bidding strategies. I have successfully executed complex projects valued at $50 million, ensuring compliance with legal requirements and mitigating risks, which has reduced legal disputes by 20%.

In my previous roles as a Management Analyst, I collaborated with leadership to realign budgets, achieving a 5% reduction in departmental outlays. I streamlined accounts payable operations, processing over 500 invoices bi-weekly with 99% accuracy, which significantly improved efficiency. My commitment to maintaining meticulous financial records and implementing rigorous audit protocols has been instrumental in reducing exposure to regulatory penalties.

With a BS in Business Administration, Finance from California State University, Fresno, I am well-versed in financial analysis and data-driven decision-making. I am passionate about leveraging my skills in procurement and management to contribute to organizational success.
