      I had the chance to join the Sales Operations team and expand my operations skills. My main focus was identifying process improvements, but what I'm most proud of is leading a SOX controls project. I made sure everyone was aligned on ownership, deliverables, and timelines. I also worked with finance, sales, legal, and IT teams to document detailed business processes for SOX controls.- Proposed and executed project prioritization framework for Product Operations department, establishing clear priorities and streamlining team communication.- Revised New Product Introduction process, improving timeliness and productivity by eliminating unnecessary duplicate steps.
