Canada

Message

At Rainbow Greenhouses, I manage a $15M+ cross-border portfolio for Costco US and Canada, coordinating forecasting, budgets, and vendors across teams in different time zones. I also designed operational planograms to improve product flow and reduce shrink, and drove 12% YoY sales growth through planning and cross-functional execution.

At Coastal Greenhouses, I rebuilt reporting to surface operational risks and redesigned workflows to reduce labor and production costs across multi-site US operations. Earlier, I launched operational workflows at Windset Farms and developed a Christmas program at Ivy Acres that expanded seasonal assortment by 450% and was presented at international trade shows.
