I am a self-driven Development Manager with vast experience in all facets of merchandising, collaborating with cross functional teams and vendors to create market disruptive products for an iconic jeans brand company. I'm known as an organized troubleshooter who can handle numerous projects within a fast paced, time sensitive environment. I've been recognized as an enthusiastic leader who consistently meets commitments and builds business through trusted global partnerships, creative problem solving, professional integrity, and a detailed approach to work.I'm a strong influencer that lives by the motto, a positive attitude is EVERYTHING.Holding true to my Midwest roots, when my company recently invited me to relocate with the headquarters to Greensboro, NC, I decided to remain in Kansas City. I'm looking for an opportunity with a company in the Kansas City metropolitan area or to work from home in a satellite office. I would also consider work on a Consultant basis.My contact email: karenarickert@gmail.com
