About Me

I am a Chemical Engineer with over 4 years of experience specializing in continuous improvement, quality assurance, regulatory compliance, demand planning, supply chain, and logistics. Throughout my career, I have developed a strong proficiency in strategizing and executing high-complexity projects that focus on enhancing customer experience, optimizing processes, reducing risks, and ensuring adherence to industry standards.

I excel in data-driven decision making and am adept at challenging assumptions and the status quo to drive meaningful improvements. My experience includes leading continuous improvement initiatives, designing tools such as Power BI dashboards to monitor maintenance activities, and ensuring product release approvals meet stringent regulatory requirements including ISO and FDA standards.

In my current role as a Quality Engineer at STERIS AST, I lead projects that standardize documentation, improve operational processes, and foster team collaboration through lean leadership programs like Gemba Walks and Kaizen initiatives. I am also skilled at conducting thorough investigations into nonconformances and developing corrective and preventive actions to maintain high-quality standards.

Previously, I worked as a Customer Account Manager where I managed logistics, customer and supplier relations, and team coordination for event execution. I also have experience as a Demand Planner at Procter & Gamble, where I developed analytical tools using Power BI, KNIME, and Excel to optimize forecasting and supply chain efficiency.

I am fluent in Spanish and English, with advanced proficiency in Portuguese, and possess a strong technical skill set including software such as Copilot, Power BI, Tableau, MATLAB, AutoCAD, SAP, and Microsoft Office. I am committed to continuous learning and operational excellence, with a focus on root cause analysis, project development, and risk reduction.
