United StatesWhat I'm looking for
At Rite Aid, I built and maintained 30+ recurring reports used by category leadership and executives to monitor sales, budgets, forecasts, product performance, and operational trends. I supported Beauty, Household/General Merchandise, and Grocery, helping leaders identify sales opportunities, markdown actions, budget gaps, and underperforming products.
At ALDI, I managed a $1.1M+ monthly store operation and led approximately 30 employees across inventory, labor planning, productivity, customer service, and performance management. I improved shrink by 50%+ and reduced turnover by approximately 50%, while training managers across approximately 75 stores during major system and process rollouts.
I also bring end-to-end small-business operations experience from Meadow Makers Handyman Service and senior leadership, logistics, readiness, and personnel-management experience from the United States Marine Corps. I enjoy solving ambiguous operational problems, building repeatable processes, and turning complex information into practical action.
