Currently working as a Freelance Driver in Yonkers, NY, I specialize in the prompt and accurate delivery of food orders. My role involves meticulous route planning, maintaining professionalism in customer interactions, managing cash transactions, and strictly adhering to DoorDash policies and safety guidelines.

In my previous role as a Logistics Manager/Fulfillment Specialist at Whitestone Home Furnishings in Whitestone, NY, I oversaw the movement, distribution, and storage of merchandise. Managing over 1000 Purchase Orders per month, I collaborated with partner factories and warehouses throughout the United States and parts of Canada. My responsibilities included tracking the flow of incoming consumer orders, developing strong relationships with delivery partners and factories, and addressing customer inquiries and concerns. Additionally, I played a key role in implementing effective relationship management strategies and ensuring the timely delivery of finished products to customers.

Prior to this, as a Purchasing/Accounting Assistant at Geritrex Corp. in Mount Vernon, NY, I demonstrated proficiency in vendor management, purchase order management, and process improvements. I successfully negotiated price, delivery, and quality, issued purchase orders using company software/systems, and monitored material deliveries to meet product schedules. My role also involved investigating discrepancies between invoices and receiving reports, as well as creating various reports and spreadsheets to streamline data management.

In my earlier career as an Account Analyst at SEIU Local 32BJ in New York, NY, I exhibited strong skills in overseeing the movement, distribution, and storage of merchandise. I managed purchase orders, developed and maintained relationships with delivery partners and factories, and ensured on-time delivery of finished products to customers. This experience allowed me to hone my vendor management, relationship management, and process improvement skills.

Education-wise, I possess a solid foundation in Computer Programming from Katherine Gibbs School in New York, NY, where I gained hands-on experience with HTML, Visual Basic, and C Language. Additionally, my Computer Information Systems degree from DeVry College of Technology in North Brunswick, NJ, equipped me with practical skills in Microsoft Office Suite and Internet Applications.

My skill set includes expertise in Vendor Management, Purchase Order Management, Process Improvements, Data Management, ERP, and Time Management, making me a valuable asset in the Supply Chain sector. I am eager to leverage my skills and experience to contribute to the success of a dynamic organization in the logistics and fulfillment industry.
