I am an entrepreneur at heart with a background in business and finance. All that plays into the foundations I have laid in my career as a business owner, and supply chain professional. I am data driven and an expert in utilizing total cost analysis, market trends, spend analytics, and cost modeling to make sound business decisions. I have built strong business relationships domestically and abroad and have extensive experience in low cost country sourcing with over 25 business development trips throughout Europe and Asia. Proven ability to successfully negotiate with external suppliers, as well as internal stakeholders to achieve desired results.
