Summary

I'm an operations and logistics leader with seven years of experience managing complex supply chains, coordinating cross-functional teams, and overseeing multimillion-dollar budgets in high-stakes environments. I've directed logistics for organizations of up to 2,500 personnel, managed $18M+ in assets with zero property losses, and coordinated over $4M in contracts supporting large-scale operations overseas. I hold a Master's in Global Supply Chain Integration and a Top Secret clearance, and I'm transitioning from military service to bring my planning, execution, and process optimization skills to the civilian logistics sector.
