I was (elected) Director of Operations and Infrastructure Council (OIC) for the Graduate Student Body. My responsibilities included coordinating day-to-day operations at ISB to ensure a comfortable stay for all students. I was also part of the core planning team for ISB's flagship events, the ISB Leadership Summit and Solstice.
I also worked on a project with Penske Truck Leasing Company, a Fortune 500 US Equipment rentals company. My primary focus was developing a demand forecasting model to be used at their 500 Distribution Centers across North America. I also created an inventory optimization model, which covered over 800 unique parts from six different truck manufacturers. Furthermore, I evaluated and designed a Central Procurement model to manage spares across all Distribution Centers. -
