My professional experience is in Sales. My first position was at Bergdorf Goodman in NYC, selling handbags belts & jewelry.While living in England, I worked at Selfridges, selling exclusively for Monet, a costume jewelry manufacturer. I was one of their top selling sales representatives, during my time there. When I came back to New York, I continued to work for Monet, running their "store" at Macy's in Herald Square. But, having enough of retail sales, I moved to the manufacturing side, working again for Monet, as a sales associate. I was the sales administrator to the Director of National Accounts. This included chain stores, catalog companies, and the military. I travelled the country, and trained their sales personnel on better selling techniques.At Van Heusen, I was the sales administrator to the National Sales director of the Cacharel division. I maintained the showrooms, and handled all correspondence between sales-reps, and the director. I worked with our off-price clients, managing orders, customer service, and shipping.At Absorba (a children's wear manufacturer), I started as the customer service manager, and was responsible for order entry & processing. I also handled all warehouse and client inquiries. I transferred to a sale position, and became a key account sales representative for the New York & New Jersey territories. I handled over a hundred accounts, including Saks Fifth Ave & Nordstrom's. I also helped to develop and create new collections, in collaboration with our designer and CEO, to expand the line, which added to our overall sales by 20%.In 1997, I started a dog walking business from home, and within a few years, "Tailwaggers" was well established. Now I primarily board dogs, under the name "The Dog House Inn" which is basically an "Airbnb" for dogs!My 2nd business is my actual "vacation home" in West Palm Beach, which I started renting out in 2015. Each year I have doubled the income from this business, and I hope to continue.
