[Summary]Across polar opposite industries and a wide range of business functions, I have consistently and positively impacted the success of new and existing hard product lines. My ability to identify problems consumers are facing, define solutions that improve products and processes, and challenge the status quo have repeatedly resulted in high levels of sales performance.I make a difference in the lives of customers by crafting innovative solutions and meaningful brand and product stories that resonate. Flexing my creativity in product design and marketing strategy energizes and excites me. I find unique ways to mine and leverage data, leading to a better understanding of the consumer and more meaningful product requirements, messaging, and validation.In addition to building strong relationships internally and externally, I bring a contagious enthusiasm for both work and life demonstrated in my successes in product development, management, and marketing. My proven track record of developing innovative product portfolios and marketing strategies includes the following accomplishments: • I developed a grassroots business development program that not only raised brand awareness but also grew sales when the company was struggling to amplify its message.• I launched products that challenged the industry norms and positively impacted the lives of consumers.• I implemented a CRM and customer journey funnel that nurtured B2C contacts and leads where no data was collected or used previously.[Additional Info]Outside of work, I utilize my classical music training to teach students of all ages and perform at various venues. I also feed my entrepreneurial spirit as the owner of a thriving rental property and lead investor in a tech startup.[Areas of Expertise]Product Development & Innovation | P&L Management | Project & Program Management | Omni-Channel Marketing Strategy | Branding & Positioning | Product Lifecycle Management | Business Development | Brand Strategy | Customer Journey | Stage Gate Processes | Product Costing & Pricing | Strategic Partnerships | Cross-Functional Leadership | Building & Mentoring Teams | Consumer Insights | Data Mining & Analytics | CRM Implementation | E-Mail Marketing
