What I'm looking for

I am looking for a customer-focused retail or operations role where I can lead inventory optimization, mentor teams, improve customer satisfaction, and contribute to growth within a safety-conscious, collaborative company.

I am a seasoned sales professional with over 26 years of experience in inventory management, customer service and sales operations. I consistently optimize inventory processes and drive sales growth through data-driven decisions and hands-on team leadership.

Throughout my career I have implemented tracking and digital reporting systems that improved accuracy and reduced turnaround times, led billing and accounts receivable initiatives that boosted cash flow, and operated my own businesses where I managed safety compliance, route logistics and client relationships.

I bring a practical, safety-focused approach to operations, a commitment to exceptional customer experiences, and a track record of training teams and improving processes to deliver measurable results.
