Peter Estefan

President

Hello everyone! My name is Peter Estefan, and I am a Senior pursuing a degree in Supply Chain Management. I am very excited to be serving as the SCMA President this year! With my position, I will be working hard to coordinate our lead and support our E-Board in their activities this year, coordinate Leadership Academy, and find ways to create the best possible experience for the club amongst our members! This will be my third year on E-Board, and I can’t wait for all the amazing things we have planned!

This summer, of 2023, I interned at Nike in Beaverton, Oregon! My role included work on Nike’s Global DSM team, where I worked on creating better margin impact for liquidated goods, under their Supply and Inventory Planning group.

I joined SCMA my Freshman year, where I was a general member and became one of the Most Involved Members. The summer after my Freshman year (summer of 2021), I interned at Rockwell Automation and worked on price mitigation among supplier contracts and spot buys at the component level. Then, my sophomore year, I held the role of Director of Operations and was able to plan and execute our Fall and Spring trips, which I encourage everyone to apply to attend! Summer of 2022, I am interned at SC Johnson through their Chicago offices, focusing on product efficiency and make/buy in their factory and procurement processes. Last academic year, I held the position of Vice President, where I coordinated our General Membership Meetings and Pre-Career Fair Mixers.

SCMA has been an amazing organization that has allowed me to realize what I want to major in and do as a career through real connections and application. Through the club, I have been able to meet like-minded individuals who are driven to learn more about supply chain and have fun doing so. Because of this, I have found a focus on my future career goals, have made amazing memories, and even better friends. With that being said, I am ecstatic about what our team has planned for SCMA this year. We will be able to learn more about supply chain, take part in valuable networking, and make truly amazing memories. I highly recommend joining SCMA for great, second to none, professional, educational, and social experiences. If you have any questions on MSU, SCMA, Supply Chain, classes, or anything else, please reach out; I’d love to speak with you! Go Green!

Caden Opsommer

Vice President

Hello everyone! My name is Caden Opsommer and I am currently the SCMA Vice President. I am a junior in Supply Chain Management with a minor in beverage science and technology from Troy, Michigan.

I joined SCMA when I was a freshman and quickly fell in love with the club. I attended most of the events and was rewarded with being the most involved member in the club. Through the support and guidance of SCMA members & E-Board, I was able to land an internship my freshman year at ZF group and a spot-on next year's E-Board as a career fair director.

Coming into my second year of SCMA as an E-Board only got better, I got closer with many members of the organization and the responsibilities of being on E-Board helped develop me professionally. I was able to plan and execute a successful SCMA career fair while accepting an internship with Procter & Gamble.
I am now in my third year of SCMA as the Vice President. I am so glad and fortunate I have had the ability to help grow and expand the organization that gives so much back to me. I enjoy my role as a VP and wish to spread my supply chain knowledge and business advice to anyone that asks. I love what I do and please reach out anytime to me if you have a question or just want to chat!

Robby Griffin

Chief Financial Officer

Hello everyone! My name is Robby Griffin, and I am currently a Senoir pursuing a degree in Supply Chain Management. This is my second year on The SCMA Executive Board filling the role of Chief Financial Officer. As the CFO, my job is to help assist the members with transactions, help and create yearly budgets, assist E-Board members with event planning and track financials throughout the year.
While growing up, I have been working at our family business, Griffin Beverage, every summer since I was about 14. I have had many different roles within the distribution center like fulfilling orders for accounts, taking inventory ensuring its accuracy, and Order deliveries. In the summer of 2022, I interned at McCain Foods as a Customer Solutions Intern. My duties consisted of working closely with distributors to make sure that their orders were getting fulfilled by our factories, and relaying information between all my accounts and factories. It has been a great opportunity for me, and I am excited to see where my career takes me. This past summer I had the opportunity to work at Alpine Supply Chain Solutions as a Supply Chain Process Intern. My goal for the summer was to create an FAQ document that is now being used at 44 sites across the nation. I learned D365 to help assist with client end Training and Go lives.
I am excited that I was given this opportunity to be one of the leaders in this fantastic organization. There are many events that we host that are not only networking with companies but with other students with the same interest. My favorite event is our fall and spring trip. We get to visit many companies as well as explore and do different things in these cities. I am looking forward to this year and inspiring others to learn, grow, and network in this organization.

Colleen Andrews

Treasurer

Hi everyone, my name is Colleen Andrews, and I am a sophomore in the Honors College studying Supply Chain Management with a minor in International Business from Canton, Michigan. This is my first year at The SCMA Executive Board, filling the role of Treasurer. As the Treasurer, I manage payment systems our members use, help create yearly budgets, assist E-Board members with event planning, and track our financials throughout the year.

Over the summer, I had the incredible opportunity to study abroad in London and Paris and delve into the fascinating world of international business. I gained invaluable insights into how large corporations like Google and EY operate globally outside of the United States. Following this trip, I began an internship at ZF Friedrichshafen, where I worked as a Global Commodity Purchasing intern. During my time at ZF, I was exposed to the purchasing side of supply chain management and was given the opportunity to work on a digital sourcing bot aimed at reducing lead times when sourcing specific parts.

I am proud to say that I am heavily involved in various organizations at MSU outside of SCMA, including Phi Gamma Nu, a professional business organization, Special Olympics Club, and Women in Supply Chain Excellence (WISE), which I am working on starting with other accomplished women on the E-Board. Additionally, I am honored to represent the Broad College of Business as a Broad Champion. MSU offers an abundance of opportunities for personal and professional growth, and I am grateful to have taken advantage of them. I highly encourage everyone to seize any opportunity that comes their way during their time here at MSU.

I am incredibly grateful to SCMA for all of the amazing opportunities they've provided me during my time here at MSU. I wholeheartedly encourage everyone to attend as many events as possible, particularly the fall and spring trips. Not only do you get to explore new cities, but you also get to meet a ton of amazing, like-minded people. In fact, some of my closest friends were made through these trips. Additionally, SCMA was instrumental in helping me secure an internship after my freshman year - I actually got it through our spring career fair! There are so many benefits to getting involved with SCMA, and I highly recommend that everyone consider joining. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to me. Go Green!

Caleb Keilen

Director of Operations

Hey y'all, my name is Caleb Keilen and I will be your Director of Operations for the 2023-2024 academic year. As the Director of Operations, I will be organizing and running SCMA's Fall and Spring Trips, as well as any day trips we will take. Our trips are one the most cherished elements of SCMA and they never disappoint. Coming on the trips is not required as an SCMA member, but you are highly encouraged to come; it is the best way to meet other SCMA members, as well as having a ton of fun while applying our classroom knowledge firsthand.

My background is a little bit different than most of the other members on the Executive Board, as I am a transfer student to MSU. I did my first two years of undergrad at Oakland Community College, prior to transferring in last year. Professionally, I have had two amazing internships thus far. In 2022, I worked as a Procurement Intern at Belle Tire HQ in Allen Park, MI, and in 2023 I worked at JBS USA in Greeley, CO as a Supply Chain Analyst Intern. My first internship helped me develop a lot of soft skills, like supplier management, and in my second internship I worked on the Business Analytics team, which allowed me to learn about data science and data analytics. If you have any questions about my experiences in the retail tire industry or the protein production industry, please just reach out and I'd love to speak with you.

Patrick Estefan

Career Fair Director

Hello everyone! My name is Patrick Estefan and I am a junior pursuing a degree in Supply Chain Management. This is my first year on the SCMA Executive Board and I am honored to hold the role of Career Fair Director. My job is to run a career fair in the winter/early spring, bringing in world class companies and connecting them with Michigan State students.

I found my way to the supply chain major through SCMA. I was encouraged to attend one meeting by my brother (Peter Estefan, President) at the beginning of my freshman year, as I was starting to navigate what my professional interests were. Through SCMA, I was able to network with students, facility, and industry professionals, which ultimately led to me interning at Oliver Healthcare Packaging. During my Sophomore year, I became one of SCMA’s most involved members, and interned at Pratt & Whitney, and experience which was made possible through the connections and skills that I gained through SCMA.

SCMA has given so much to me on a professional and personal level. It has helped to give me focus and learn how to be a career minded student. SCMA has exposed me to a multitude of companies, professional organizations, and peers who push each other to be the best professionals, and people that they can be. Because of these experiences, I am very excited to be apart of the Executive Board, and continue my personal growth, and see other members grow themselves in both personal and professional manners. Come check out SCMA at a General Members Meeting (GMM), or our other events!

Andy Nguyen

Career Fair Director

Hi, my name is Andy Nguyen, and I am a senior at the Broad College of Business majoring in Supply Chain Management. I will be working alongside Patrick Estefan as your Career Fair Directors for the 2023-2024 academic year. My partner and I could not be more excited to strategically plan our Spring SCMA Career Fair.

I have completed two internship rotations at Toyota North America in the PSD (Purchasing Supplier Development) Department (Fall 2022 & Summer 2023). I gained valuable experiences and had the opportunity to practice multiple Japanese concepts like Genchi Genbutsu & Kaizen throughout multiple projects. Overall, working within Toyota gave me an opportunity to link my classroom learning with real-world experiences. With that, I developed the ability to visualize and understand how supply chain management operates within Toyota and the rest of the world.

Last summer of 2022, I completed my first internship at ODL Inc. as a materials manager/planner. I developed a forecast report to improve efficiency with our planners so they can see all of their commodities, raw materials levels, safety stock, and more crucial data to keep our production as efficient as it can be.

SCMA has helped me grow as a young professional in many ways. I have made so many new friends from the very first day I joined SCMA. I found all of my internships through the SCMA Career Fair, and as Career Fair Director this school year, I am very excited to plan and help other students find their passion for supply chain management as I did.

If you have any questions, please never hesitate to reach out to me as I am always looking forward to meeting new faces!

Jenna Lewis

Director of Internal Relations

Hi everyone! My name is Jenna Lewis and I'm a Junior majoring in Supply Chain Management. I'm also the Director of Internal Relations for the 2023-2024 academic year, meaning if you have any questions regarding the organization’s website and memberships, please reach out to me!

This past summer of 2023, I had an internship with Meijer in their fully automated dry-grocery facility as a supply chain intern. I learned so much about the operations side of supply chain, and had an amazing experience working in the facility on the floor every day! My project was to create a database to track dormant inventory in the warehouse, and to come up with ways to optimize this inventory.

While my internship helped me explore the world of supply chain management, I would have to say my involvement in SCMA has been my most enriching experience for learning about all things supply chain management. Last year, I had the opportunity to be the Vice President Chair of SCMA for the 2022-2023 school year. My involvement in the club showed me all the amazing opportunities SCMA has to offer, and I am extremely grateful to be a member of the Eboard today!

Please feel free to contact me with any questions, or come say hi at our General Member Meetings!

Go Green!

Nicole Keller

Director of External Relations

Hello, my name is Nicole Keller, and I am a senior studying Supply Chain management with a minor in Information Technology. I am very excited to serve as the Director of External Relations (DoER) this year for SCMA. As the DoER, I will be responsible for planning community engaged events allowing our members both the ability to be active in our community and grow together as students. This will give students the opportunity to give back to our community while making connections within SCMA and throughout the supply chain.
Currently and as well as this past summer, I intern with Owens Corning, a leader in roofing and fiberglass materials. In the summer I worked in the supply chain department in the material planning space. My main focal point centered around inventory quality management for our roofing business. This was a great opportunity to learn more about material planning, maintaining efficiency in the amount of product held and working cross functionally to maintain these goals. My current role is on our sourcing team, working in creating a supplier profile to aid commodity leaders. It has been a great experience to work in two different areas of the supply chain within the same company. I will also be continuing into a full-time role with Ownes Corning following graduation in May of 2024 into their supply chain rotational development program.
Previously I interned with Zero Zone, who is a manufacturer of commercial coolers and freezers. I worked in the purchasing department where I was able to do a multitude of tasks. This role was very beneficial in gaining general supply chain knowledge and gave me the opportunity to work cross-functionally.
This school year will be my second year involved in SCMA and my first year serving on the Executive Board. Joining this organization has been one of the best decisions I have made here in my time at Michigan State. Having the opportunity to both grow professionally in the field of supply chain and grow closer to my peers in the same major has been extremely beneficial for me. I’m excited to continue my involvement in SCMA this year by planning events where members can grow closer together while we are able to participate in bettering our community. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out.
Go Green!
