I build retail planning and inventory strategies that grow sales across 1,000+ stores.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
At HomeGoods, I own seasonal financial and inventory strategy for Hard Home categories across 1,000+ stores, balancing sales growth, profitability, and comp performance.
I use Open to Buy, On Order, sales trends, customer demand, and allocation strategy to identify risk early and strengthen assortment and inventory flow. I also coach four analysts supporting store-level execution across U.S. and Puerto Rico markets.
Previously as a Senior Allocation Analyst, I helped grow comp sales from +2% to +6%, contributing $15M in year-over-year growth. I built weekly shipping strategies, evaluated assortments through store visits and competitor analysis, and negotiated a 15% vendor discount that led to repeat orders.
My earlier sourcing and e-commerce work gave me experience negotiating with global vendors, managing production risk, and running daily digital operations across Magento, Salsify, and NetSuite.
