19 years of Supply Chain experience, end to end.....
I’m a hardworking and trustworthy individual who enjoys working in a team as well as working alone. I’m an excellent communicator with colleagues and clients alike. I am self-motivated and always eager to learn new skills and gain the ability to teach others.
Dedicated Supply Chain professional with history of meeting company goals utilizing consistent and organized practices. Skilled in working under pressure and adapting to new situations and challenges to best enhance the organizational brand.
Throughout my vocational experience I’ve always strived to improve upon the work done by my predecessors. I feel that if I improve the efficiency of operation of my job role that learning new skills and in turn improving myself will automatically follow. This approach to work means that I remain focused on my tasks and it also means that I can put myself in a position to be promoted within a company to more senior roles.

Being under the water and enjoying the colorful corals paired with the adrenalin of seeing a shark, is something you cannot explain. Favorite animal is the leatherback turtle and small little sea horses :)
