What I'm looking for

I seek a logistics or supply-chain role where I can apply Lean Six Sigma, ERP expertise, and freight negotiation to drive cost savings, compliance, and cross-functional improvements.

I am a results-driven logistics professional with three years of experience in global supply chain operations and broader leadership experience in education and athletics. I specialize in shipment tracking, escalation resolution, import/export compliance, freight negotiation, and cost optimization, and I hold a Lean Six Sigma Black Belt.

Across roles at South American Parts Corp, Goodyear Belts, and Miami Dade College, I partnered with cross-functional teams to negotiate freight contracts, implement ERP improvements (NetSuite, PeopleSoft/MDConnect), and reduce costs above 40%, while supporting KPI reporting and regulatory compliance such as FTZ and customs filings.

I bring hands-on technical support and training experience, strong vendor management, and proven leadership from directing athletic programs and teaching math. I am eager to apply process improvement, compliance expertise, and logistical leadership to optimize global logistics operations.
