What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead end-to-end product development and launches, partnering across design, marketing, operations, and vendors to build customer-informed products, improve processes, and drive business growth.

At D.S. & DURGA, I lead the full product lifecycle for new launches, from strategy through evaluation, while managing cross-functional work across design, marketing, operations, sales, and 15+ vendor partners.

I've led packaging redevelopment for candles and eau de parfum to improve brand consistency, reduce COGS, and strengthen shelf appeal. I also relaunched the hand and body line using customer feedback, managed launch calendars and SKU creation in Asana, and prepared product and innovation insights for investor and board presentations.

Previously, I delivered new product ventures at Calvin Klein, led sustainable PR and marketing sourcing across seven global markets at Sunday Riley, and built category, buying, and product-development programs at Outdoor Voices—including a beauty and wellness launch that reached 100% sell-through in two weeks.
