## About

```text
I've led store operations for Pier 1 Imports, Michael Kors, Chico's, Kohl's, and Maurices, driving sales performance and exceptional customer experiences across national retail brands.

At Chico's, I opened a new outlet-center store from pre-opening planning through grand opening and ongoing operations, recruiting and training the team while establishing merchandising, inventory, scheduling, and performance-management systems.

I'm now a business owner at Happy Hearts Childcare, creating structured, nurturing programs for children while maintaining Minnesota nutrition and MN Rule 2 requirements. My background includes recruiting, onboarding, employee relations, compliance, training, payroll control, visual merchandising, inventory management, loss prevention, and KPI management.
