What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters growth, creativity, and collaboration in a dynamic e-commerce environment.

I am an e-commerce and digital operations professional with a solid foundation in merchandising, content, and user experience (UX). My journey has taken me from hospitality to tech, where I have developed a diverse skill set that includes full-stack development and proficiency in various e-commerce platforms. I thrive in dynamic environments and am passionate about leveraging my skills to drive growth and enhance customer experiences.

My recent experience includes working as an E-commerce Executive at Joust Group, where I managed and optimized multiple Shopify websites and marketplaces. I successfully implemented D2C and marketplace strategies that resulted in significant growth across our portfolio. Additionally, I have a strong background in analytics, utilizing tools like Google Analytics and Amazon Analytics to analyze performance data and inform decision-making. My ability to adapt and learn quickly has been a key factor in my success, allowing me to contribute effectively to various teams and projects.

I hold a certification in Full Stack Web Development from Ironhack, where I honed my skills in JavaScript, HTML5, CSS3, ReactJS, NodeJS, Express, MongoDB, and RESTful APIs. I am eager to continue my professional journey in the e-commerce sector, where I can apply my technical skills and passion for digital operations to create impactful solutions.
