What I'm looking for

I am seeking a senior engineering or operations role where I can lead projects, improve processes with data-driven insights, and deliver measurable cost and efficiency gains.

I am an Industrial Engineer with 17+ years leading engineering, operations, and logistics projects in high-tech manufacturing, focused on process efficiency and measurable cost savings.

At Intel I managed large layout releases for microprocessor factories, standardized KPI reporting, built Power BI visualizations, and discovered over $350k in savings in 12 months by challenging the status quo.

I also founded and ran a retail business, delivering rapid revenue growth, managing inventory and vendor contracts, and applying Lean Six Sigma and AI tools to streamline workflows and communication.
