What I'm looking for

I'm looking for opportunities in strategic procurement, supply chain, or logistics where I can improve operational efficiency, support data-driven decisions, manage suppliers, and contribute to global projects.

I'm currently managing end-to-end procurement at Bamal Fastener Corporation, from purchase orders and supplier coordination to order tracking for key accounts.

I forecast demand, support supply planning and VMI fulfillment, and coordinate overseas shipments from Asia to the U.S. and Mexico with suppliers and freight forwarders.

I've built experience across purchasing, logistics, financial reporting, and productivity improvement, including roles at Lean Solutions Group, Banco de Occidente, and Helados Colombia.

I use Power BI, SharePoint, P21, and Monday.com to track KPIs, monitor supplier performance, improve visibility, and support data-driven sourcing decisions. I'm also pursuing an MBA in Digital Transformation and Business Development.
