I am an accomplished merchant with extensive merchandising and buying experience across various categories and channel formats. Most recently, I was a Category Director at adidas, where I made product opportunities come to life! I have a strong instinct and passion for product, blending creative and analytics with a consumer centric approach to decision making.I am motivated by relationships and results and enjoy bringing people closer together to achieve shared goals. To accomplish this, I focus on delivering key outcomes, building a great culture, and quickly adapting to changing priorities.I possess deep knowledge and connection to the performance, active, and outdoor industries, and consider myself a market expert and energetic consumer. If you catch me outside of work, I'm an avid hiker and adventurer, with a bucket list goal of thru hiking the Pacific Crest Trail from Mexico to Canada one day.
