@kristynwhitfield
I translate seasonal demand into assortments, replenishment, and in-stock retail execution.
What I'm looking for
I've spent 20 years with DICK'S Sporting Goods turning local customer demand, seasonal traffic, and product performance into merchandise priorities. In Panama City Beach, I researched top sellers and demand patterns to help buyers secure the right products for tourism peaks.
I lead inventory execution across receiving, merchandise flow, replenishment, stock accuracy, markdowns, promotions, and visual merchandising. I monitor item and category performance to spot fast sellers, stock gaps, excess product, and seasonal opportunities.
I've led multiple store inventories and traveling inventory teams, supported 15 new-store openings, and contributed to remodels and merchandising projects for DICK'S and Going, Going, Gone! I also served as Shrink and Safety Coach and trained assistant managers and managers at the district level.
Earlier, I managed high-volume restaurant transactions and daily deposits in a seasonal market. My finance foundation and AutoCAD drafting experience complement my hands-on retail planning and operational background.
