Having contributed to thriving Operations for Global Market Leaders multiple times throughout my career, I have directed operational improvements in several organizations. I have over 15 years of award-winning, high profile experience, bringing best practices from multiple areas while working successfully within highly restricted budget constraints. More importantly, I have consistently brought strategy, focus and tactical direction to the Operations I have been involved in. I see the complete picture and implement sound business principles in every area, resulting in very successful initiatives and consistent organizational optimization. As a dynamic team member with a passion for managing all aspects of Operations, I can put out the fires you have been fighting and allow you to focus exclusively on what you do best. If you are positioned for growth – or want to be – and you need smart Supply Chain Management, let’s have a conversation about how I can help you achieve that next level of success.
