What I'm looking for

I'm looking to optimize supply chain, logistics, inventory, and procurement operations, using data analysis and process improvement to improve service delivery and operational efficiency.

At TCS on the Royal Caribbean Group shipboard inventory process, I support inventory operations for 46 vessels. I resolve discrepancies in Crunch Time, Oracle, and Power BI, close 100–150 purchase orders daily, and prepare post-voyage reporting for replenishment planning.

Previously, I improved warehouse inventory and order fulfillment at Yaraman Coffee, reducing processing time by 60% and delivery times by 5–7 days. My experience also includes freight contracting, inventory control, purchasing analysis, demand forecasting, and supply chain reporting across Mumbai and Sydney.
