I am an Industrial Engineering graduate with over 20 years of experience in the apparel industry, specializing in contract manufacturing, global procurement, and sourcing. My career began in the Philippines, where I advanced from Production Merchandiser to Vendor Quality Control Trainer for premium brands such as Ralph Lauren, Tommy Hilfiger, and American Eagle Outfitters. Over the years, I have honed expertise in vendor management, capacity planning, materials purchasing, product development, and quality control—skills I later leveraged as Global Procurement and Sourcing Manager for Light Heart LLC, a U.S.-based eyelash brand. Having worked extensively with factories across Asia and managed vendor relationships remotely for U.S. companies, I bring a deep understanding of supply chain dynamics, cost optimization, and process streamlining to support business growth and efficiency.
Experience: 10+ years
Managed the sourcing requirements in terms of materials, finished goods and production facility. Quality, costs, and service are the main concerns in sourcing. While sourcing, product sampling and development are also established to check if the product or service complies to the standards.

In line with the contract manufacturing, I also manage the costing process as part of the Sales Team. Aside from doing the costing, comprised of the materials, labor, allowances, GP, I also set the time and action calendar as part of the quotation to the customers. Once the order is approved, this same costing is used and passed on for materials planning & production with the aim of having all costs within budget. If and when quality issues arise, the said cost will have to be negotiated as claim to the party that caused the quality problem.
