About
Where Data Meets
Supply Chain Strategy
My passion lies in exploring the world of data analytics and how it can transform supply chain processes for organizations. With hands-on experience in Excel, Tableau, SQL, and Power BI, I have honed my technical expertise and problem-solving abilities to create meaningful solutions and decode data for insightful decision making.
As a W.P. Carey student at Arizona State University, I am actively engaged in organizations such as Delta Sigma Pi, the Supply Chain Management Association, the Department of Information Systems Club, and served as a WPC 101 Facilitator. These experiences have equipped me with leadership skills, professional expertise, and a collaborative mindset that I bring to every role.
From strategy and operations at WM to procurement at American Airlines, I have gained real-world experience in driving efficiency, managing cross-functional projects, and delivering measurable results across diverse industries.
