What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can lead demand-planning solutions, drive pre-sales PoCs, mentor teams, and accelerate adoption of ML-enabled forecasting in cross-functional, growth-oriented organizations.

I am a senior supply chain and demand-planning consultant with 14 years of experience across retail, manufacturing, and insurance domains, specializing in demand planning (forecasting, allocation, replenishment), Oracle ERP billing, and data warehouse migration. I have led and scaled teams, delivered 105 engagements totaling $290M in contract value, and reduced delivery timelines through process improvements and innovative PoC models.

I excel in pre-sales architecture, driving ML-based forecasting solutions, stakeholder engagement, and cross-functional collaboration to align product, education, and sales strategies. I have a strong track record of enabling partners, building reusable assets, and receiving multiple awards for innovation and delivery excellence.
