Results-oriented District Manager with extensive vendor purchasing expertise.
What I'm looking for
I am a results-oriented District Manager with over 25 years of experience in the granite fabrication and tile industry. My career has been rooted in building strong vendor partnerships, optimizing supply chains, and leveraging data driven purchasing strategies to drive organizational success. I am committed to enhancing productivity, maintaining safety standards, and fostering strong client relationships.
Known for my ability to negotiate competitive terms, manage high volume inventory, and streamline procurement processes, I bring a sharp eye for quality and cost efficiency. I’ve led cross functional teams, implemented purchasing protocols that improved margin performance, and maintained consistent product flow even in high-demand environments.
With deep understanding of the Tile market and fabrication standards, I’m committed to aligning purchasing decisions with broader business goals and delivering value through every vendor interaction.
In addition to my purchasing expertise, I have a strong track record of managing customer collections with professionalism and persistence- ensuring timely payments while preserving long standing client relationships. This balance of assertiveness and service focus has helped improve cash flow and strengthen account stability across multiple regions.
My well-rounded experience in vendor relations, supply chain coordination, and client service makes me a strong asset for any organization in the tile and surfaces industry.
