BIO
Construction and supply chain expert with 12+ years in prefab, modular, and manufacturing. Implemented multi-million dollar ERP systems and industry best practices across multiple firms and found myself incredibly frustrated and tired from the experience. Founded Merlin to create the ERP solution I always wished for - one that works for construction and manufacturing. Passionate about all things construction and circular economy.
