In My Own Words

Accomplished, enthusiastic, resourceful and team-oriented operations and marketing professional with a wide range yet distinctive level of experience in the action sports and performance product industries. As the industries have grown and revolutionized our culture, I have also evolved in my roles. My diverse background includes everything from connecting with brand loyalists and consumers, interacting with athletes and their agents, to working on product launches and key initiatives, including the Winter and Summer Olympic Games. I have developed into an exceptional and engaging communicator. As a result of working in fast-paced and deadline driven environments, I am able to use my intuitive interpersonal skills and creative thinking to provide immediate and effective solutions. I use every opportunity to cultivate and project the heart and soul of a brand, as well as communicate the brand’s passion, core values, and vision. I create a positive and memorable experience during every interaction. These are the hard skills I own: • Operations Management • SAP Data Management • Product Planning Distribution • Purchase Order Processing • Domestic and Global Logistics • Inventory Management • Supply Chain | Warehousing • Customs Regulations | Global Trade Management • E-Commerce (Shopify and Amazon) • Strategic Planning • Data Analytics and Reporting • Vendor Relations | Vendor Management • Executive Assistance • Retail Sales • Customer Service
