At EY supporting Unilever’s LATAM markets, I analyze ML-driven demand forecasting systems, tracking forecast accuracy, bias, and high-risk SKUs to improve planning reliability.

I’ve built inventory risk and forecast variance models across 3M+ rows, identifying a 176M-unit optimization opportunity. Previously at Deloitte, I reduced SLA breach rates from 25% to 5–8% through root-cause analysis and operational interventions.
