What I'm looking for

I seek a role where I can lead demand and inventory planning, optimize supply chain processes, work cross-functionally, and drive measurable cost and service improvements.

I am a supply chain and demand planning professional with experience delivering measurable inventory and forecasting improvements for global product portfolios.

At Garmin I managed demand forecasting for 500+ SKUs across 200+ product families, implemented time-series models in Power BI, and achieved monthly forecast accuracy above 80% while eliminating backorders and cutting sales reaction time by 20 days.

I reduced $1.8M of idled finished-goods inventory for the Asia region and lowered on-hand inventory from $25M to $21M in six months through cross-regional coordination, lifecycle management, and phased- out strategies.

I bring strong cross-functional leadership—coordinating finance, supply chain, IT, legal, and marketing to integrate acquired businesses and secure incremental revenue—backed by a Master of Science in Supply Chain Management and certifications including APICS CPIM.
