Executive Overview
Global sourcing professional with a passion for product and the product life cycle . I love seeing a design become a reality and hitting the price points we need. My product roots are in textiles, but I have managed multiple product categories over 15+ years of experience in global supply chain and sourcing. I have traveled extensively, negotiated and collaborated with diverse global teams and leverage my international background daily. I thrive on interacting and sharing strategic vision with my overseas partners, building relationships, and re-searching new vendors and markets.
