What I'm looking for
I am an ambitious professional with a Master's degree in Linguistics from the University of Warsaw, specializing in Polish, German, and English.

My experience includes roles such as Senior Product Scheduler and Operations Support Analyst, where I honed my skills in procurement, performance measurement, and continuous improvement. I take pride in my achievements, including leading money-saving projects and implementing new materials for production, which have significantly contributed to operational efficiency.
