What I'm looking for

I seek a leadership role in logistics or procurement where I can optimize inventory, improve processes, mentor teams, and contribute to data-driven operational decisions.

I am a logistics and procurement professional with extensive experience managing inventory, reverse logistics, procurement contracts, warehouse operations, and team performance. I combine analytical skills, ERP and data‑analysis tools (Excel, Power BI), and budget management to improve operational accuracy and reduce costs.

Throughout roles in Canada and Ecuador I led warehouse and regional operations, implemented inventory strategies, integrated ERP systems, and built motivated teams to exceed performance targets while ensuring compliance and safety. I deliver measurable improvements in forecasting, reporting, and process efficiency.
