Thin Blue Line USA brought the Thin Blue Line American Flag (Black & White American Flag with a Blue Stripe) to market. If you ever see a Thin Blue Line flag on a flag pole, car, T-Shirt, pin, etc., more likely than not, it came from Thin Blue Line USA. I began my time at the company the summer of 2017 after my junior year of college in the Marketing & Development department. I specialized in sourcing new products from numerous factories around the world. At the tail-end of my senior year of college, I took over as Brand Manager. During my period as Brand Manager, before moving on to the next adventure, I lead the search for a new warehouse to meet the demands of our rapidly-growing company. After finding the ideal building and location, I assisted in the planning of our workplace setup to optimize productivity on the fulfillment side of the business. I also developed numerous new organizational/ operational structures that dramatically increased the company's efficiency. During my time at the company, Thin Blue Line USA was in the top 1% fastest growing E-Commerce companies in the world.
