Message

At Bozeman Health Deaconess Hospital, I maintain inventory for a 154-bed trauma receiving hospital and 40 outpatient clinics. I keep GPO contract compliance above 95% while identifying cost-saving opportunities.

I work with manufacturers and wholesalers on costs and pricing, and stay in daily contact with clinical and administrative teams to support safety and inventory needs. I also acquired a Certified Pharmacy Technician License.

At Marubun, I analyzed more than $15M in inventory and prepared weekly reports on inventory levels and trends, using field feedback and a PowerBI dashboard. I also created quarterly executive briefs that summarized KPIs and sales trends.

As an Asset Associate (Buyer) at Marubun, I managed inventory and procurement from 10–15 vendors, handling more than 1,100 POs daily. I also created a supply chain with multiple global vendors for a new country location, coordinating with internal groups and building on existing ERP systems.
