As an executive leader, I have maximized brand equity and was ranked #1 for multiple consecutive years in retail comparable sales performance, KPIs, and prestige. Being strategic marketing and a merchandising leader, I evaluate market share, revenue trends, and geographic/demographic trends. ★ Currently, I build supply chains poised for growth, leading supply chain strategy and operational excellence that fuels enterprise growth and drives efficiencies. In addition, I lead the Enterprise Continuous Improvement (CI) Center of Excellence (CoE), providing strategic and operational expertise to drive quality, compliance, and CI initiatives. ★ Furthermore, I earned top rankings in controlling expenses and boosting bottom-line profits. As a standard-focused operations leader, I drove operational excellence while observing an improvement in YOY audit and minimized shrink (inventory reduction). Most importantly, I planned and deployed a key market strategy across 7 markets. ★ As a concept-to-execution leader of growth initiatives, I repositioned the brand, changed consumer perceptions, and won industry acclaim. Most noteworthy were my efforts in enabling the first-ever partnership between a publication and retailer—I launched 15 pilot stores in a co-branded relationship between JCP Salons and InStyle Magazine. ★ In all my executive leadership roles, I led teams to establish a strong selling and service culture through accountability and collaboration.
