About

Supply Chain Planning and Business Analytics professional with experience across automotive manufacturing and global energy operations. I specialize in inventory optimization, volume management, supply chain analytics, and planning automation, helping cross-functional teams make faster, data-driven operational decisions. In my current role, I support volume management across the EMEA region by collaborating with Sales, Supply Planning, Customer Service, and Logistics teams to improve planning visibility, manage order exceptions, and support Sales & Operations Planning (S&OP). Previously, I led inventory optimization and reporting initiatives that improved forecast visibility, automated planning processes, and unlocked significant working capital through data-driven decision-making. I enjoy translating complex operational data into actionable insights using SAP, Power BI, Python, and Advanced Excel.
