Analyzing and translating resources into appropriate, impactful strategies that drive revenue and increase profit for locally-owned small businesses and startups. Local giants like Costco and Saks Fifth Avenue have also benefited from my client/member growth and sales driven strategies. Those experiences opened my aperture and offered insight to the lions in their respective fields. Ann Taylor, Brighton, Nina McClemore and others have partnered with me for the same benefit at a local level.
