As the Senior Director, Business Operations at Skullcandy, I lead the supply, demand, and sales operations teams, ensuring alignment, efficiency, and customer satisfaction across our global markets. I leverage my MBA and 12+ years of experience in the action sports/outdoor industry to drive strategic planning, process improvement, and operational excellence for our innovative and high-quality products.I have a proven track record of transforming and optimizing the S&OP process, from long-term forecasting and inventory management to purchasing and distribution. At my previous role as the Director of Operations for North America at Aqualung Group, I oversaw five distribution centers and all freight activity in the region, managing a team of 4-6 direct reports and 22-32 indirect reports. I also spearheaded key projects to reduce costs, increase efficiency, and enhance service levels, such as selecting a new global freight partner and streamlining our distribution center footprint. I have strong communication and problem-solving skills, and a collaborative leadership style that fosters teamwork, effective decision making, and integrated solutions.
