Supply Chain Management
Biography
I'm Jamie Kobin, majoring in Supply Chain Management in the Heath Integrated Business and Engineering (Heath IBEP) cohort of 2026 at UT. Additionally, I'm an active member in the Supply Chain Management Scholars of Distinction program, focusing on building my career experiences and network.
I am passionate about innovation and continuous learning, which led me to achieve:
- Career Ready- Supply Chain Management Certification
- Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt
These certifications have equipped me with fundamental skills in SQL and Power BI, as well as essential networking capabilities within the business world.
I sharpened my analytical skills through an internship at Smurfit Westrock by building dashboards in Power BI for ocean transportation. This experience allowed me to enhance data visualization, optimize supply chain processes, and excel academically while preparing for my future career.
During COVID-19, I developed a deep interest in building keyboards and playing video games. The problem-solving aspect involved in assembling keyboard parts sparked my curiosity in engineering. This experience fueled my desire to join Heath IBEP and understand the engineering side of entrepreneurship. I believe entrepreneurial minds are crucial for progressive change and creating a sustainable world.
Looking ahead to my career, I envision myself thriving in a rapidly changing, high-stakes environment where impactful decisions are made daily. I aim to implement artificial intelligence into supply chains, create efficient digital experiences, and explore opportunities within the technology industry that align with both my personal and professional interests.
My journey with Heath IBEP excites me as it offers collaboration opportunities with peers from various disciplines over the next two years.
