I’m a packaging and procurement professional who builds practical, cost-optimized packaging and sourcing solutions end to end. At iRefill as Co-Founder & COO (Procurement & Operations), I led annual direct material spend across electronics, GI sheet metal, bottles, labels, and ancillary packaging—negotiating contracts that delivered 19% landed cost saving.

I’ve also driven packaging innovation and operational scale by designing, sourcing, and launching 4 generations of IoT-based refill machines, installing them in 10+ retail locations and increasing refill transactions by 40% within eight months. I trained in SAP S/4 HANA MM for vendor management and compliance, supported supplier coordination and quality standards (BOMs, specs, tests), and filed a patent for a “smart refilling station” published in 2024.
