Vanessa North

On any given day, Vanessa might be negotiating volume and pricing with component suppliers, following up on delivery times and quality, and working with the contract manufacturer on production schedules or manufacturing issues. No two days are the same in the supply chain world.

Before De Oro Devices, Vanessa spent seven years working in Procurement & Business Operations at Apple. During her time with Apple, a proud achievement Vanessa remembers fondly was working across product launches, in particular the iPod Nano.

Outside of the business world, you can find Vanessa making use of her private pilot’s license to visit family and friends.

Vanessa has a Bachelors in Industrial Engineering from Cal Poly, SLO and an MBA from NYU Stern School of Business.
