Bio
Rosy Lopez Gross
Maria was my main contact and Subject Matter Expert for the Supply Chain department as part of the International Expansion projects at StarTech.com. Maria is an assertive professional with an impressive knowledge about Supply Chain processes and project management. She offered accurate and realistic feedback on estimated delivery timelines to order and move product from vendors and/or warehouses to its final destination at the emerging markets. Her support was key to the success of the market expansion projects at the company in 20+ countries around the globe. It was a true privilege to work with Maria.

I am pleased to write this recommendation for Maria A Avilan. She began working for 3M Co., in February of 2005, as Planner Inventory Controller of this company, She had established good relationships with her colleagues, and during her time in this company she has developed strong leadership and interpersonal skills that have been unanimously praised by colleagues. Maria Avilan worked very hard and progressed steadily, revealing her passion and enthusiasm for international trade in the process. Her duties involved several cost saving activities, as well as managing customers and vendors orders. Maria Avilan talents were always evident in her performance. She displayed strong leadership abilities, logical thinking abilities, and the ability to work well with teams. She consistently completed tasks assigned by the leadership on time and without errors. In short, she was a model member of our company. As a result of her impressive performance, She was promoted after two years to the position of Sourcing Coordinator. I highly recommend Maria Avilan for employment. She is a team player and would make a great asset to any organization.
