What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role in procurement or inventory management where I can leverage supplier negotiation, inventory optimization, and process standardization to reduce costs and improve operational efficiency.

I am a detail-oriented Procurement and Inventory Officer with hands-on experience developing and implementing procurement policies, negotiating supplier contracts, and controlling inventory to ensure timely delivery and regulatory compliance. I bring practical expertise in supplier relationship management, cost-effective sourcing, and inventory optimization across retail and art hub operations.

At CERACERNI’SARTHUB and JUSTRITE SUPERSTORE I standardized procurement and logistics processes, performed root-cause analyses to correct procurement issues, and used data analysis to monitor trends and improve revenue and stock accuracy. I am proficient with Microsoft Office, ERP and Peachtree, and I lead teams with fair, objective decision-making to improve operational performance.
