What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a leadership role where I can drive revenue growth, strengthen strategic retail partnerships, and elevate operations. I thrive managing teams, KPIs, and compliance in regulated environments while shaping programs that improve profitability and efficiency.

I’m a senior executive leader with 20+ years of experience driving large-scale revenue growth, leading high-performing teams, and overseeing complex sales, operations, and organizational functions. I’m recognized for strengthening corporate and retail partnerships while elevating operational performance through strategic programs that improve profitability and efficiency.

In my current role as a Visual Merchandising Manager at Kohl’s, I develop and execute visual merchandising strategies that increase customer engagement and storewide sales—designing seasonal displays, leading signage and promotional initiatives, optimizing department layouts, and training staff on merchandising standards. Previously, at the Oklahoma Lottery Commission, I led statewide sales operations representing $300M+ in annual revenue, managed corporate accounts totaling $192M annually, directed IT and security oversight in collaboration with MUSL and vendor security teams, and ensured compliance with state and federal requirements through budget oversight, contract management, and program reporting.
