Talented Supply Chain Professional with experience working with small technology companies covering all purchasing functions. Expertise in Electronics Purchasing, MRP, vendor management, inventory management, logistics, supply chain, operations, quality assurance, and collaborating with leadership at all levels of the organization. Recognized for my strong emphasis on building rapport with internal customers and suppliers to create value.My philosophy and values: I see the suppliers I work with as people who want to do a great job for me and I treat them that way. Suppliers are in business to make a living for themselves and their employees, just like the company I represent. They want my company to be successful because they recognize that when I succeed, they succeed. Treat them with respect, tell them what you need, and ask, and you will be amazed at what they will do for you. Especially when you compare that to how they perform when they are abused, taken for granted, and demanded to give up more then they can afford, just to keep your business.
