Since I graduated from the University of San Diego, I've been able to hone my unique, child-like curiosity into me being a student of my business. Fortunately, this continued learning has only intensified my enthusiasm and commitment to this career path. 

⏩     Fast forward 16 years:  

I'm an executive sales and sourcing leader with 16 years accelerating EBITDA growth through product     innovation and diligent oversight of overseas manufacturing. Known for delivering top-line growth and margin contribution by utilizing an extensive supplier network across Asia, Mexico and the US. Expert in owning each phase of the product lifecycle - from concept to delivery - while cultivating long-term retail partnerships and eclipsing revenue and margin projections. My experience indicates a proven ability to align international teams, streamline operations, and bring value-driven products to market.

⏺️ Acted as main liaison between the company I worked with and  Costco global, Sam's Club global and PriceSmart.

⏺️ Engineered and patented a garage storage rack, still a global staple at Costco today.

⏺️ Designed and sold a 9-SKU garage collection to Costco (traditionally an item-based club).

⏺️ Sourced and launched factories in Mexico, China, Vietnam, Thailand and Malaysia.

⏺️ Assembled packing lines in Savannah, Georgia and San Diego, California to circumvent anti-dumping duties.
