Highlights of my experience include:

Eight years of experience providing excellent leadership and outperforming corporate objectives in busy retail locations including Blue Panda, Spirited Apparel, and Ampersand; spearheading day-to-day operations, merchandising/marketing, and staff training and leadership functions.

Realizing consistent increases in store profitability and customer bases; recognized as “Employee of the Month” on six separate occasions.

Implementing strategic and employee-centric incentive programs to boost sales and stimulate a high level of employee retention and customer satisfaction.

Demonstrating solid time management and organizational skills and effective customer service strategies.

My skills in staff and operations management, customer relations, and general retail activities are proven, and I am confident my additional strengths will seamlessly translate to your environment at Slantwise. The opportunity to offer more insight into my qualifications would be appreciated.
