About

As a Continuous Improvement Engineer woking in the Business Process Excellence team at CEVA Logistics, I focus on optimizing operations, streamlining processes, and driving efficiency within the Contract Logistics arm of the business. My expertise lies in identifying bottlenecks, applying Lean and Six Sigma methodologies, and enhancing end-to-end supply chain performance to deliver measurable value for customers and stakeholders. Previously, as a Manufacturing Engineer at Cibo Design, I gained a strong foundation in production optimization, process standardization, and cross-functional collaboration. This experience equipped me with the ability to bridge the gap between technical requirements and operational execution while fostering a mindset of Kaizen and continuous improvement. I am passionate about leveraging data-driven insights, process improvement strategies, and structured problem-solving tools to achieve sustainable results. Whether it’s reducing waste, improving throughput, increasing efficiency, or enhancing service quality, my goal is to create resilient systems that not only deliver today but scale for the future.
