What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead business development, brand, category, or trade strategy work where I can turn consumer insights, supplier partnerships, and go-to-market execution into measurable growth.

I've led private-label wine growth across 250 U.S. and Canadian stores, generating 22% of category sales and launching more than 300 exclusive brands.

At Bono Brands, I partnered with global suppliers to expand CPG beverage brands across the U.S. and Brazil through market analysis, consumer insights, supplier management, negotiations, and go-to-market strategy.

At Kidde, I led omnichannel trade marketing across Walmart and Sam's Club, connecting brand, pricing, product, merchandising, packaging, and e-commerce initiatives.

Most recently, I've helped launch and grow a luxury wine concierge division at Trunk & Barrel Wine Cellar while delivering personalized customer technical solutions at Apple. I enjoy turning consumer and market insights into practical growth opportunities.
