-: My name is Sonali Bhatnagar
and I work at Merck as a chemical engineer.
Currently, what my role is, I'm a global sourcing manager,
working in the sourcing and procurement group.
What I do on a daily basis is, for a shorter term,
I work with my internal stakeholders
to kind of get different products to, you know,
that need to be outsourced for Merck.
And then, on a longer basis,
I work on different strategies for the company
to kind of choose the right suppliers
that need to be vetted based on different parameters
that the business can use on a regular basis.
