With over 10 years of experience in the fashion and automotive industries, I am a passionate and driven Staff Global Supply Manager at Tesla, where I lead a strong GSM team managing artificial leather commodities for all interiors and seating applications. I have a bachelor's degree in Production Management from the Fashion Institute of Technology, and I have studied fashion technology in Hong Kong and foreign language in Italy. I bring diverse perspectives and experiences to the team, and I am motivated by Tesla's mission to accelerate the world's transition to sustainable energy.
In my current role, I oversee the global raw material tier 2 supply chain from design development through full lifecycle production for artificial leathers used on all interior and seating applications for Models SX3Y, Semi, and Cybertruck, for Tesla Fremont, Austin, Berlin, and Shanghai. I leverage my skills in supply planning, process improvement, and strategic procurement to ensure quality, cost, and delivery targets are met, and to identify and mitigate risks and opportunities. I collaborate with cross-functional teams, including engineering, design, quality, logistics, finance, and legal, to support Tesla's innovation and growth. 
I’ve worked as a Brand Guardian, Production Artist, Digital Artist and Associate Director for the last 14 years. During this time, I’ve both managed and worked with teams to maintain a consistent recognized brand, both with guidelines or without, thus achieving what our clients were looking for. I’m proficient in Adobe Creative Suite, Figma, WordPress, Keynote, PowerPoint, GMG Color Management Software and more. In addition to these skills, I have developed a great understanding of the workflow and processes associated with the advertising industry with anything print or digital.
As Associate Director of Production Design at code & theory, I oversaw all production aspects and delivered across multiple projects at a time. I also worked with our Creative Team and the client to ensure our work was always received both in a timely manner and with the client’s satisfaction. Aside from these relationships, a crucial part of my work centered around empowering and mentoring others. After a decade working with different clients and agencies I was in the position to lead a team of seven: through production and digital design, from Client requests to delivering.
Ive completed design work for various clients in various environments like ad-agencies, magazines,
in-house for off-site clients or designers. All of these past work experiences were done through professionally recognized retailers/agencies where you can find below under experiences. You may also view my portfolio at www.darswork.com.
