Description

I help companies reduce costs, improve margins, and strengthen vendor performance across complex environments.

With 15+ years of experience in global procurement, I’ve managed spend portfolios exceeding $5B and delivered measurable savings through supplier strategy, negotiation, and cost optimization across IT, SaaS, Marketing, MRO, and Professional Services.

Delivered 10%+ cost reduction in one month by restructuring supplier strategy and sourcing directly from manufacturers.

I combine a structured, data-driven approach with strong execution identifying cost inefficiencies, improving supplier governance (KPIs, SLAs), and ensuring compliance with corporate standards.

Focused on practical solutions, fast implementation, and measurable results.
