Supply chain and operations leader specializing in cost reduction, inventory forecasting, and regulatory-compliant fulfillment.
What I'm looking for
I’m a results-oriented Supply Chain and Fulfillment leader with 6+ years specializing in cost management, inventory forecasting, and keeping inventory optimized to support a 3–4 month supply. At Highland Cabinetry, Inc., I spearheaded end-to-end supply chain operations, delivering a 25% cost reduction and a 75% efficiency improvement.
I thrive on continuous improvement and analytical problem-solving—using supply chain data to forecast demand, reduce excess inventory by 54%, and drive sustainable process enhancements. I’ve proactively handled supply chain disruptions by negotiating with suppliers and logistics providers, including $8 million in annual cost savings.
Today, I continue leading operations as a Site Manager, overseeing global mail workflow through a DMS, international shipment management, and adherence to U.S. Foreign Trade Regulations with ITAR/EAR authorizations and exemptions. I also bring leadership through mentoring teams, ensuring quality control, and maintaining compliance with safety and vendor requirements.
