What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can blend policy analysis, conflict insight, and logistics/data reporting to support security and peace outcomes—growing into greater responsibility in program coordination and international compliance.

I’m a Political Scientist specializing in Peacebuilding, Public Management, and Conflict Resolution, with hands-on experience supporting security and peace initiatives in Colombia and the USA. I combine policy analysis with stakeholder mapping and project coordination to turn complex environments into actionable plans.

In my current role as a Logistics Analyst, I manage inventory traceability, monitor supply chain processes, and build delivery-timeline and cost reports to optimize resource allocation. I also handle international compliance—managing export documentation and regulatory requirements—so shipments meet legal and operational standards.
