Project Overview Partnered with, a global IoT and fleet management SaaS company, to design and deliver an end-to-end preferred vendor program for indirect spend. Built the program architecture from scratch — defining how vendors are categorized, evaluated, and held accountable — and developed AI-driven recommendations to reduce manual procurement processes across SaaS and IT categories.

Results & Impact

• Created a structured framework giving procurement teams clear criteria for vendor selection and performance management

• Designed compliance and enforcement mechanisms to reduce maverick spend and improve commercial discipline

• Developed AI automation recommendations to increase procurement throughput without adding headcount

• Built a repeatable program model that scales as Samsara's vendor base grows

Status: In progress — expected completion June 2026

Project Overview

Led a cross-functional initiative to evaluate product and material options under cost, quality, and feasibility constraints. Built shared guardrails across brand, quality, and technical teams, clarified decision paths, and created a structured evaluation that allowed the business to make a confident, consumer-aligned decision while easing long-term supply pressure.

Results & Impact

• Identified a path delivering multi-million-dollar future savings
• Maintained consumer-preferred product performance
• Reduced reliance on a single commodity source, strengthening resilience
• Created a repeatable decision framework for future product evaluations

Project Overview

Evaluated how opaque global supply chains enable greenwashing by allowing brands to make sustainability claims that consumers cannot verify. Analyzed the disconnect between marketing narratives and upstream realities across multi-tier supply chains with limited traceability. Using EV batteries and leather goods, showed how companies highlight selective environmental benefits while hiding extraction, processing, and manufacturing impacts that contradict those claims.

Results & Impact

• Exposed the credibility gap between sustainability messaging and actual supply chain practices
• Identified where opacity, fragmented reporting, and limited traceability allow brands to exaggerate sustainability
• Illustrated how upstream environmental and social risks remain invisible to consumers
• Demonstrated that value-based sustainability claims thrive when operational data is unavailable
• Recommended multi-tier traceability, standardized disclosures, and claim verification to reduce greenwashing

Project Overview

A material category had accumulated years of unnecessary complexity — too many suppliers, too many spec variations, too much friction. I mapped the full landscape of material requirements, workflows, and supplier roles, then facilitated cross-functional alignment to simplify and consolidate without disrupting production.

Results & Impact

• Delivered over $1M in efficiency and cost benefits within the first year

• Reduced supplier count while maintaining operational flexibility

• Improved workflow consistency and eliminated rework

• Established clearer spec standards for future sourcing decisions

Project Overview

Built the first comprehensive view of packaging materials, attributes, and requirements to help leadership understand environmental impacts and execution pathways. Created a prioritization approach that balanced impact, feasibility, and risk, translating broad commitments into a clear, phased roadmap.

Results & Impact

• Provided leadership with a single source of truth for material insights
• Accelerated progress on low-risk changes (e.g., recycled content updates)
• Enabled more complex transitions to follow structured governance
• Improved data credibility and cross-functional alignment

Project Overview

Developed a comprehensive category strategy for my Master’s Program evaluating packaging materials, tooling requirements, supplier capabilities, and co-manufacturer dependencies across a fast-growing product portfolio. Mapped the full packaging system to surface fragmentation, single-source exposure, and specification inconsistencies that created cost, risk, and operational bottlenecks. Aligned cross-functional stakeholders on a clearer packaging architecture and identified where standardization and targeted consolidation would drive the greatest value.

Results & Impact

• Identified component standardization opportunities across bottles, tubes, pumps, and closures
• Created a tooling governance model to improve visibility, lifecycle control, and supplier flexibility
• Strengthened leverage through strategic consolidation and improved volume alignment
• Reduced supply chain risk by addressing co-manufacturer dependencies and improving interface integration
• Established a scalable packaging architecture to support innovation, reduce complexity, and protect margin

Project Overview

Used workflow mapping and process-mining tools to diagnose bottlenecks in a manufacturer’s multi-step process. Facilitated redesign sessions with operational and technical teams to evaluate alternative models, ultimately improving flow and increasing flexibility.

Results & Impact

• Resolved a recurring supply constraint affecting product availability
• Improved workflow transparency and reduced manual work
• Delivered approximately $500K in efficiency gains over two years
• Strengthened risk visibility and issue-prevention processes

Project Overview

Developed a comprehensive analysis of textile waste systems to understand where breakdowns occur across collection, sorting, recycling, and reuse pathways. Mapped the end-to-end value stream, identified structural bottlenecks, and evaluated policy, infrastructure, and market drivers shaping the feasibility of circular textile flows. The project connected global sustainability goals with practical operational realities, emphasizing what it would actually take to build a more circular system.

Results & Impact

• Built a clear systems map outlining failure points across the textile lifecycle
• Identified key interventions (collection models, material traceability, design-for-recycling)
• Highlighted misalignments between sustainability commitments and current infrastructure capacity
• Produced actionable recommendations that balanced policy constraints, cost, and operational feasibility
• Strengthened my ability to translate complex sustainability systems into practical, data-informed pathways for improvement

Project Overview

Conducted a full review of supplier and product documentation within ERP systems to identify missing or outdated materials. Designed a risk-based approach to close gaps and establish a more reliable documentation ecosystem.

Results & Impact

• Closed 100% of high-priority documentation gaps
• Improved audit readiness and reduced compliance exposure
• Saved teams 5–8 hours per week in manual follow-ups
• Strengthened long-term data governance

Project Overview

Cleaned and combined decades of fragmented education datasets, built relational tables using SQL, and used Tableau to visualize long-term trends. Focused on building a defensible data foundation and presenting insights with clarity.

Results & Impact

• Delivered clear, decision-ready trend analysis
• Strengthened data governance and join-logic discipline
• Improved ability to translate complex datasets into accessible visuals
• Reinforced skills directly applicable to traceability and data integrity work
