What I'm looking for

I seek a role that leverages data-driven buying and cross-functional collaboration, values mentorship and community engagement, and offers growth in category management and leadership.

I am a results-driven grocery buyer with a BA in Psychology and a strong track record of boosting category performance through data-informed purchasing decisions.

At Whole Foods Market I analyzed sales data, market trends, and consumer preferences to manage procurement for dairy and frozen categories, contributing to a 30% sales increase since the store opened.

Previously, I worked directly with clients as a behavior technician delivering ABA treatment plans and as a retail sales associate and intern supporting diverse youth programs, which strengthened my communication, teamwork, and frontline customer service abilities.

I bring empathy, leadership, and creativity to collaborative settings, and I seek roles where I can combine analytical buying responsibilities with opportunities to mentor and engage diverse communities.
