At Main Event USA, I own development for home products including doormats, textiles, candles, mugs, décor, and tabletop, taking products from market opportunity through specifications, sampling, costing, QA, purchase-order readiness, and production follow-up.
I translate design direction into technical drawings, materials, dimensions, packaging, labeling, and inspection criteria, while managing overseas vendors and resolving feasibility, quality, cost, and delivery issues. I reduced costs by 30% in a core category within three months through supplier evaluation, sourcing, negotiation, and manufacturing-location analysis.
I also helped take BulkBlanks.com from concept to launch, defining its positioning, product architecture, supplier base, Shopify experience, and conversion-focused content for makers, crafters, and small-business resellers.
Across Phildansk, CCAP Fairtrade, and Amore Living, I’ve developed ceramics, furniture, lighting, seasonal décor, and artisan-made collections, balancing design intent with manufacturability, commercial requirements, quality standards, and production realities.
