What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a commercial operations role where I can own enterprise carrier accounts, protect margins, and drive logistics automation with data-driven negotiation and cross-functional leadership.

I’m a commercial operations and key account professional with over a decade of experience optimizing business portfolios, leading territory business development, and protecting corporate margins. I’ve owned high-volume enterprise relationships with Tier-1 carriers, enforcing SLAs and resolving cross-border operational escalations.

In SaaS-driven logistics environments, I’ve connected platform data to real-world execution—auditing billing cycles, monitoring transport spend, and safeguarding PC2 margins. I’ve driven measurable outcomes through data-driven renegotiations, improving on-time delivery and building repeatable claims recovery processes.

I also bring hands-on leadership: mentoring teams, scaling workflows to reduce manual effort, and improving customer and partner performance. From logistics operations to branch-level P&L ownership, my focus is simple—use practical process automation and strong account management to grow revenue and protect profitability.
