At Music and Arts, I directed purchasing for a $40M annual inventory category, setting monthly targets from historical sales data. I also resolved pricing and promotion discrepancies with vendors and produced reports to guide buying decisions.

At Guitar Center, I supervised 20 instructors serving 400 students and doubled lessons program enrollment and teaching staff by strengthening scheduling reliability and the student experience.

At CultureSlate, LLC, I founded and ran a media company as CFO, handling budgets, payroll, and financial reporting. I also presented financial reports to the board and guided video production from pitch to published content using performance analytics.
