What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can lead digital procurement and strategic sourcing transformations—driving vendor negotiation outcomes, implementing automation, and partnering with stakeholders to deliver projects on time, within budget, and with lasting change.

I’m a Project Manager with 5+ years of experience in digital procurement, strategic sourcing, and vendor management across logistics, financial services, and business services. I lead end-to-end procurement technology implementations and optimize sourcing processes to deliver real, measurable results.

At A.P. Moller - Maersk, I led cross-departmental implementation of the Keelvar sourcing platform, improving sourcing efficiency and standardizing procurement processes. I negotiate with strategic vendors to secure improved contract terms and cost savings, while aligning global vendors and cross-functional stakeholders to procurement initiatives.

I also implement advanced sourcing capabilities, including AI-driven sourcing automation for high-volume procurement activities to improve productivity and reduce manual effort. From scoping and requirements gathering through UAT and deployment, I balance scope, budget, timeline, and risk to keep delivery commitments on track.

Previously, as a Contracts Analyst for Strategic Sourcing at Wells Fargo, I supported migration of contract and supplier data from legacy systems to tools like Beeline, and collaborated with stakeholders to streamline sourcing workflows. Earlier at Xerox Business Services India Private Limited, I processed and validated pension benefit plan data under U.S. ERISA standards and trained interns and new hires—building the training and change-management foundation I bring to procurement transformation today.
