I am fortunate to have gained experience in many verticals and shipper types.My background:Most recently, I served as the Global Head of Business Solutions for Order Management at DHL, where I led global solution design, process transformation, and technology deployment. I specialize in bridging operational know-how with digital tools—driving results through optimized order and freight management, standardized analytics, and aligned regional execution.Previously, I spent over 20 years at Kuehne+Nagel in various leadership roles, building and guiding high-performing teams across implementation, BI, and supply chain solution design. My background includes overseeing large-scale implementations, developing proprietary dashboards, and connecting systems like WMS, TMS, and order management platforms to deliver measurable customer value.Key strengths include: • Global supply chain strategy and solution architecture • Leading cross-functional and cross-regional teams • Operational process redesign and customer experience improvement • Business Intelligence (Power BI, Tableau) and insights for data-driven decision making • Complex implementation management and systems integration • Crisis management with clear and decisive action plansWhat’s next:I’m actively preparing for the next stage in my career—ideally a senior leadership role where I can drive enterprise-wide supply chain innovation. I’m looking to lead large-scale transformation initiatives, shape digital strategy, and mentor diverse teams by driving the expansion of insights from BI tools and integration of AI as these are keys to the future of supply chain and logistics. My goal is to help organizations evolve their supply chains from transactional and siloed to integrated, proactive, and performance-driven.
