Work History
Purchasing Supervisor, 07/2013 to Current
Cdw – Shelton , CT
  • As the purchasing supervisor I review requisitions to determine how the purchase should be made and if the funding is appropriate for each purchase. Oversee the purchase of goods that support all departments and sites in the district. Communicate with district staff and outside vendors through phone, email and in person, conversations to answer all questions and resolve issues. Oversee the purchasing staff, giving direction and guidance when needed.
  • Process all Non Public School and Agency contracts for the special education department ensuring that all contract documents are completed correctly and all required insurance needs are being covered.
  • All contracts for the Bond and facilities department
  • All Non-public requisitions for catholic schools in our district and orders for all of our necessary small schools.
  • All contracts for services come to me for review and to ensure that all documents are attached and in compliance. This includes insurance documentation and endorsement language.
  • I create reports, create and analyze data and I assist in closing every year. I work extensively with principals and secretaries as well as administrators and am an effective communicator in both written and verbal methods.
  • As the primary trainer on Munis financials I provide trainings several times a year as well as assisting by phone and video multiple times a day.
  • I created the manual for Munis financials that everyone utilizes for processing requisitions and running budget reports.

I am happy to say that I was part of the implementation team and continue to train all users on the financial portion of our system. I also created the manual all users utilize for the financial systems.
  • In 2015 the Community Engagement Coordinator and I developed our new contract process where we have two different processes. One process for direct services to students and a much shorter process for non-direct services. Having both processes enabled our district to coordinate and enforce a process to make sure we know the people entering our schools to make sure our students are protected.
  • In July of 2017 I initiated a new electronic contract process that has not only helped to make contracts much more efficient and timely but easier for all stakeholders. We continue to implement this software across the district automating processes where we can.
