Welcome to my profile. I am a highly effective sales and eCommerce leader, with more than 20 years of experience, working hands-on across departments and divisions to grow sales, including those through Amazon’s retail platform. I played an instrumental role in the transformation of Dickies, from being viewed strictly as a workwear brand to that of a mainstream lifestyle brand. I have a proven track record of influencing senior executive partnership decisions across multiple retail stores and online platforms. I can build strategic alliances and partnerships with high-profile businesses, and also have experience with B2B outside sales. I was known as a successful closer, with an average bid ten percent higher than the competition. I have been recognized by my peers as a Top 5 Finalist for Employee of the Year from more than 6,000 employees worldwide.  I consistently have been a top producer, honored with awards as Salesman of the Year, Account Director of the Year three times, the Largest Percent Increase for an Account Director, and the receipt of a Special Recognition Award.I prospected and opened Tilly’s, a 5-door teen and young adult apparel retailer, based in Orange County, CA.  I nurtured the brand partnership to expand it across multiple states as the company would open 260 stores nationwide.  During my tenure at Dickies, I led sales of $500M in products. I launched Dickies brand with the Mervyn’s department store chain, 189 locations, and grew that to $11M sales before Mervyn’s closed in 2008. I know I am only as good as the teams I lead, so I take time to train, coach, and mentor each team member for career growth and success. As a result, I can create an environment of cohesion and team spirit, with optimal levels of engagement and performance. My key areas of expertise include Strategic Planning & Execution, Operations Management, Brand Management, B2C and B2B, Corporate Branding & Positioning, Omnichannel Marketing, Traditional & Digital Marketing, Market Share Growth, Lead Generation, Market Trend Analysis, Relationship Building, Networking, Client Conversion & Retention, Key Performance Indicators (KPI), Budgeting, Consumer Research, Merchandising, Marketing, Supply Chain, Distribution, Best-in-class Customer Service, Account Leadership, Strategic Partnerships, Brand Registry, iMAP policy enforcement, Staff Development & Leadership. If you would like to discuss my skills and background, you will find my contact information in this profile.
