Procurement & Supply Chain · Tesla · NPI Programs

I turn complex supply chains
into competitive advantages.

Procurement and supply chain professional at Tesla, where I lead NPI procurement for battery pack builds — ensuring 100% build readiness while keeping costs 25% under budget. I combine deep analytical tools (SQL, Tableau, SAP) with strategic sourcing to move programs from first prototype to production without missing a beat.

Selected Work

Projects that demonstrate how I think, not just what I shipped.

About

I started my career as a Project Engineer at Shapoorji Pallonji, building should-cost models and SAP-based MRP planning for large infrastructure projects — that foundation in operational rigor and structured problem-solving has stayed with me ever since. After completing my Master's in Engineering Management at Duke, I've applied procurement strategy across hardware startups and now at Tesla, where I lead NPI procurement for battery pack programs across global sites.

I'm drawn to problems where the margin between success and failure lives in the details: supplier readiness, BOM accuracy, and data-driven decision-making at scale. Outside of work, I'm usually exploring new places, cooking, or finding the best coffee spot in the Bay Area.
