More Than a Resume

Curator of vintage fashion, rare media, and pop culture collectibles with over 16 years of retail experience.
With an eye for trends and creative business strategies, I bring ideas to life.
With over 16 years in retail and merchandising, I’ve developed a career defined by trend awareness, product innovation, and business growth. My expertise spans the full product life cycle—from concept development and vendor negotiations to buying, merchandising, and bringing products to market. I’ve learned how to read what customers want before they do, and translate those insights into assortments that deliver results.
I’ve built much of my career in the toy and novelty space, where creativity and timing are everything. My ideas haven’t just lived on paper—they’ve turned into multi-million dollar programs that grew departments and energized brands. Along the way, I’ve partnered with vendors, led cross-functional projects, and managed categories with thousands of SKUs, always keeping a pulse on what’s next.
Outside of traditional retail, I bring the same skills to creative ventures—curating vintage finds, pop culture collectibles, and original designs for markets and events. Whether in a corporate setting or a community one, I thrive at the intersection of trends, creativity, and strategy.
How I Get It Done
I bring a versatile mix of technical expertise, creative strategy, and leadership experience. From advanced analytics and merchandising to vendor relations and branding, I know how to take a product from concept to market. Skilled in tools like Looker, Excel, and various POS systems, I pair data-driven insight with hands-on retail knowledge. Beyond buying, I’ve led teams, built websites, managed social media, and created content that connects. My strength lies in combining creativity with business acumen to deliver results across every stage of the process.
