My career path has given me the knowledge & insights to see what a company needs to stay highly profitable, minimize or reduce loss to damage, outdated, or vendor/internal error. I continually analyze customer needs, new product, & storage space to keep the newest & most popular items constantly flowing. Implementing new processes, polices

& procedures to account for loss of productivity need to be priority for the Inventory Control Team. Safety, Accuracy, Availability & Training provide the least amount of potential loss. I will strive to make the company I am employed by more efficient, safe,

& I am committed to moving up inside the company to find the position that utilizes my open minded, proactive approach to problem solving & prevention using my extensive experience with retail, warehouse, event production, technology utilization and future forward thinking skills to it’s advantage in Virtual Warehousing and the ability to implement new technology in to current processes focusing on Safety, Inventory Accuracy & Increased Productivity alongside on time movement of Inbound & Outbound merchandise to end-user businesses and consumers throughout the purchase process. I have a wide variety of experience that relates to many positions that Harbor is recruiting for including 20 yrs of equipment experience including 10 as an Equipment & Process Trainer. And also have many large scale warehouse projects that I took initiative to complete and also was selected by management to complete the projects in a timely manner and make sure all areas were slotted correctly for merchandise storage. I can provide paperwork regarding those various projects and also can provide several managerial references from supervisors currently employed at Harbor. Work Experience
