About
Thank you for the space! I have a track record of over 20 years in Commercial, Administrative areas, and especially the last 12 years in Strategic Purchasing, Supply Chain, and Operations, among others, in multinational companies. I am passionate about leading projects that generate tangible impact in efficiency, sustainability, and digital transformation. I am looking for challenges that allow me to continue growing in dynamic environments, where I can contribute my experience in negotiation, Project Management, agile methodologies, supplier management, implementation of technological tools, and leadership of multicultural teams. I am especially motivated by local or regional projects, process innovation, and the possibility of contributing to a collaborative and results-oriented culture. I have a great ability to adapt to change and learn very quickly! I believe in the power of good practices, continuous improvement, and purposeful work. I am ready to add value from day one.
