At Conagra Brands, I support product commercialization and lifecycle management within the R&D Food Design team, maintaining specifications and product data in Oracle and SAP. I also contribute to launches of 10 to 15 new SKUs across frozen brands and support an annual savings goal of over $700K.

At Pinnacle Foods, I planned and implemented products for Hungry-Man/Swanson and KFC, applying Lean Six Sigma Green Belt principles to commercialization and product development. I also identified product and meal-component opportunities that delivered year-on-year savings of at least $1M.
