Managing two major brands for two separate retail accounts, SHLD & SHOS, with two different strategic paths but one common goal - more revenue, share & profit! Truly soup to nuts experience, responsible for strategy to operations to contract negotiations to management of one of the best & brightest sales team a manager could ask for.

Survived the recession and continuing to sell mass premium appliances. Challenging environment to drive profitable growth as competitors try to leap frog each other with their respective innovation and aggressive promotion strategies. Can't succumb to playing the price game. Displaying sales leadership skills must be the difference maker. And so the journey continues...

Tapped to drive growth of the LG Brand Home Appliance business after successful growth of the OEM WM business. Bigger challenges require sharpening the pencil. Can I cut the mustard and drive profitable growth of this channel against some strong HA competition? We're going to find out!

Responsible for helping to drive growth in LG Electronics Home Appliance division. There's no better opportunity than continuing to drive growth of a premium brand in this challenging economic environment. However, I have smart technology and stylish design on my side. This is going to be a great opportunity!

From concept development to launch, I am responsible for developing the business case, i.e. crunching the numbers, leveraging consumer insights, creating the go-to-market strategy and identifying the success/performance metrics for new product growth initiatives - such as environmental sustainability products, an integrated consumer electronics solution and new vertical market opportunities. Its a helluva experience developing valuable leadership skills with significant cross-functional team accountability.

An example of a "leap of faith". I left corporate to sign onto this is burgeoning 3rd party Online Distribution going concern to help develop the business and client base. This company is destined to be successful in the near future. Unfortunately, the reality of the matter was income and time was not on my side, so I jumped back into corporate.

I am on the birth certificate of one of the single biggest launches in the history of Sears...the Kenmore brand high-effiency, front-load laundry platform (HE3 series) as the launch team lead. This experience catapulted me to one of the most demanding experiences in my career as the product manager on the Sales to Sears team. From managing existing product quality to assisting in product platform design, I was an integral part of the laundry platform's growth and development.

Fresh out of business school, there wasn't a better company that I could have worked for...I enjoyed a strong marketing and strategy experience on the New Industry Development team. I was responsible for developing the sales and marketing launch plans to get credit cards accepted, believe it or not, in the under-penetrated $100 Billion dollar Quick Service Restaurant industry, i.e. McDonald's, Burger King, Subway, etc. Now you can't find a fast food restaurant that doesn't accept one. I worked on a team that was clearly ahead of the curve.
