For nearly a decade, I have managed buying and merchandising on behalf of leading US retailers for categories that generate upwards of $1B in annual revenue. My responsibilities include, but are not limited to, management of the P&L, strategy, forecasting, inventory, supply chain, pricing, promotion, assortment selection, and product education. My experience covers a wide range of product types from 99 cent pudding cups to $10,000 bottles of Tequila — a diverse array which has given me exposure to the unique challenges of managing a global supply chain at scale.

A customer-centric mentality drives my approach to strategy, product selection and supplier management. Consistently throughout my career, I have leveraged this strong focus on serving customers to deliver exceptional financial results in sales, profit, and market share. Passion for serving customers still motivates me today.
