What I'm looking for

I’m seeking a role in import compliance or supply chain where I can apply HTS classification, ERP expertise, and process improvement to reduce delays and improve operations.

I am an experienced professional with 15+ years across import compliance, customer service, recruitment, and supply chain management, skilled in HTS classification, U.S. Customs regulations, and ERP systems such as SAP and Oracle. I have a track record of reducing shipment delays, resolving compliance issues, improving operational efficiency, and delivering customer-focused solutions while partnering with cross-functional teams.

I excel at data-driven decision-making, process improvements, and stakeholder relationship management, and have led high-volume hiring campaigns for life sciences and manufacturing clients. I hold an M.S. in Organizational Development & Leadership and bring practical experience in sourcing, talent acquisition, inventory management, and import compliance to drive measurable business outcomes.
