Supply Chain Manager at Michigan Manufacturing International, developing Vietnam suppliers for U.S. industrial programs.
What I'm looking for
At Michigan Manufacturing International, I manage Vietnam sourcing for U.S. industrial manufacturing programs, connecting engineering, quality and operations teams with Vietnamese factories. I take sourcing from drawing review and supplier screening through RFQs, negotiation, sample development and shipment coordination.
At 3W Group, I built and managed a network of 200+ suppliers. Supplier consolidation and negotiation reduced purchasing costs by approximately 7%, while supply planning and vendor coordination improved lead times by approximately 15%.
My earlier work includes supplier localization at Techtronic Industries (TTI) Vietnam and purchasing roles at C.Q.S Precision Die Casting and KCC Paint (Vietnam). I’m experienced in supplier qualification, cost analysis, production follow-up and cross-border logistics, with exposure to more than 4,000 SKUs.
