Supply Chain Excites Me!
I am a go-getter, love to be challenged in order to improve service to my customers
and to better my knowledge and personally progress forward. I appreciate how each
department correlates within the supply chain so I know how my role affects everyone. I
avoid silo and tribal thinking and work with each department to create a beneficial plan for
the business. I put service first and understanding forecasts and demand and realizing when
they don’t align. I try to determine how to adjust production plans and balance the targets
needed to fufill service levels above a 98%. Aligning in-house production schedules to keep
LC’s filled but not to let product expire. Continuous improvement has always been my goal
and I take pride in that accomplishment.
