About Me
I’m a CEMS MIM candidate and a Chemical Engineer who’s passionate about working in fields related to product development, lean manufacturing, and supply chain management. Through my previous experience at a leading Canadian CPG firm and a successful coffee brewer startup, I’ve had a chance to interact with all of these these areas in my various job functions.
I’m interested in bringing new products from idea to market, and evaluating existing ones to drive operational efficiencies.
