What I'm looking for

Seeking a senior role in trade compliance and customs operations where I can leverage my expertise in process optimization and regulatory adherence to drive operational excellence and cost savings.

As a seasoned customs and supply chain professional, I bring a strong background in trade compliance, customs classifications, and operational excellence. My expertise spans managing complex customs operations, leading cross-functional teams, and implementing process improvements that drive efficiency and cost savings.

In my role as a Customs Operational Advisor at FedEx, I delivered strategic consulting to multinational businesses, reducing dependencies on brokerage services and enhancing business process efficiency. I also conducted comprehensive audits and prepared KPI reports to ensure strict adherence to export control lists and international sanctions, mitigating compliance risks and ensuring operational integrity.

At UPS, I served as a Customs Imports Process Coach, where I documented customs clearances for high-value shipments, managed complex finance operations, and applied Lean Six Sigma methodologies to enhance operational efficiency. My achievements include reducing audit fines by 108% and improving team performance by 17% through comprehensive training programs.
