What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to grow in supply chain and project management while contributing to innovative solutions in a collaborative environment.

I am a dedicated professional with over three years of experience in supply chain and merchandising within the fast-paced fashion and retail industry. Currently, I serve as a Digital Merchandise Specialist at Nordstrom, where I collect and manage information from stakeholders to enhance the user experience in our merchandising systems. My role involves collaborating with buying offices to ensure accurate information and process improvements, while also utilizing various tools such as Tableau and Microsoft Office to deliver optimal results.

In addition to my current position, I have a diverse background that includes managing product logistics for European wine distributors and providing management consulting services that resulted in a significant sales increase for a bubble tea business. My academic journey at the University of Washington, where I earned a B.A. in Business Administration, has equipped me with a strong foundation in strategic planning and analytics, further enhancing my ability to drive results in any project I undertake.
