I left the corporate world and founded my e-commerce business in 2018, leveraging my background as a grocery buyer and years of experience in various data roles within marketing/business development & IT management.I am continually working to identify opportunities & build relationships with quality suppliers, brand owners, and vendors; I believe that having a cooperative mindset and helping others to grow & improve is the best way to improve yourself + scale your business. I continue to learn on a daily basis in this constantly changing business. I'm truly appreciative for my good fortune in meeting some amazing people along my journey thus far. My advice to other business owners is do what you love then delegate or outsource the rest & always look for ways to work ON your business rather than IN your business!
