My Fashion, Retail and CPG experience include various roles for some of the most recognized brands in the industry: Victoria’s Secret, Macy’s, and VF Corp.

A Bit About Me...

I developed a love for fashion at a young age, but it wasn't until my senior year of high school that my passion truly ignited. During a class trip to New York City, my Art Teacher introduced me to her friend who worked at the Calvin Klein showroom, and I knew then that the fashion industry was where I belonged.

In a twist of fate, after about ten years on the retail/brand side of the industry, I found myself in the tech field just as Retailers, Fashion brands, and CPG companies were adopting solutions to streamline and enhance everything from Supply Chain to Merchandising to Customer engagement.

I have had the privilege of working in various roles, including store operations, buyer, brand representative, and multiple positions in technology. I even started my own omni-channel women's clothing brand, designing and producing a clothing line out of NYC. Each role has been unique, challenging, and immensely fulfilling.

All of this incredible experience translates to a passion for helping companies grow, influencing positive change, and a desire to collaborate with cross-functional, dynamic teams. I have an in-depth understanding of consumer trends and the technology stack needed to support a company’s vision. My unique approach to storytelling (as it is real-world experience) translates to audiences recognizing my passion for technology and how it helps brands grow.

If you share my enthusiasm, please don't hesitate to connect with me via email, LinkedIn or Instagram. I always enjoy meeting others who are just as passionate about fashion as I am.
