I am the first person Retailers hire when they’re ready to:

I’m a business strategist and Retail Consultant, ex-corporate buyer, travel junkie, ice cream feign, boy mama, football coach wifey, blue - haired, new-idea-by-the-minute kinda woman.

I'm Your New        
Growth Strategist.

Business as we know it has been forever changed - but with change, comes so many great things.  Innovation, being one of the greatest.  Some of today's greatest, most popular companies were birthed during some of the toughest times in history (Instagram, Disney, IBM).  Why?  Because when there is pressure, when things around us seem to be out of our control and it feels that there's no way out - the curious Entrepreneurs like you find a way.

You look in places others don't.  You do things others won't. You turn failure and downturn into opportunity.  You are the exact type of Entrepreneur and Business I proudly work with every day.

You are the one that is changing and innovating the landscape of retail today.  I jump in as your wing woman each time you want to dive in and take a fresh look at your business to discover new opportunities to both increase and diversify your revenue and serve your customers at a deeper level.

I spent 10 years working inside the corporate offices of some of the US's biggest retailers, as a Buyer, Strategy Manager, Merchandising Director, Logistics Analyst, Merchant. Fast forward to today, I ditched the corporate life to be the driving force of innovation and revenue behind small and midsize creative and retail businesses like yours worldwide.
