What I'm looking for

I'm looking for order management, fulfillment, logistics, supply chain operations, technical buying, or operations roles where I can improve processes, maintain inventory accuracy, and support customer delivery timelines.

At Proofpoint, I manage global customer orders for enterprise cybersecurity products and appliances, coordinating provisioning, licensing, fulfillment, shipment, imaging, and inventory readiness.

Across manufacturing, technology, and government environments, I've led warehouse, shipping, receiving, purchasing, and inventory operations. At Yamaichi Electronics, I improved inventory accuracy and cycle-count performance for approximately $1.5M in assets while reducing overtime through workflow and material-tracking improvements.

As a former U.S. Navy Submariner, I bring operational discipline, accountability, customer support, and experience managing high-value inventory in mission-critical environments.
