I have a profound passion for computing and building, which inspired me to pursue a degree in medical engineering. Beyond my academic and professional pursuits, I enjoy playing basketball and socializing with friends, which helps me maintain a healthy work-life balance. In my downtime, I find relaxation in playing games. Photography is another interest of mine, particularly capturing the beauty of wildlife and architecture through my lens.

Purchasing Manager at Scala Surgical (2021-2023): At Scala Surgical, I led the purchasing department, ensuring the procurement of high-quality surgical instruments that met stringent UK regulations. I successfully managed international supplier relationships, optimizing supply chain processes to meet tight deadlines. I played a key role in financial management by efficiently processing payments and handling returns, thereby maintaining smooth operations.

My proactive approach and effective use of SAP for managing quotes, invoices, and accounts payable significantly improved our procurement efficiency. My leadership within a small, dedicated team ensured timely delivery of surgical instruments, directly enhancing customer satisfaction and operational success.
