About

I am an International Business graduate with over six years of experience in procurement and strategic sourcing. I have managed high-volume portfolios and led supplier sourcing and development projects at both national and international levels. My core strengths include strategic sourcing, cost optimization, contract negotiation, and supply chain risk management. I have solid experience working with platforms such as SAP and Ariba, and I collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams on complex projects. I am currently improving my English and learning Spanish to operate fluently in multicultural environments. My goal is to continue advancing in international procurement, driving value through efficient and sustainable sourcing strategies. I am open to new professional opportunities in Barcelona and available to connect.
