Colleagues describe them as "Tracy was a delight to work with at Nordstrom. As a Learning Specialist, I relied on Tracy as a Subject Matter Expert (SME). She possessed a deep understanding of the complex merchandise planning application used to generate procurement plans. I trusted her to test enhancements, explain system nuances and define best practices. She demonstrated a unique skill in blending the science and art of planning. She is super-smart – that is the science. No one knew more about the system and metric interactions. In addition, she included insightful collaboration from her thought partners to drive business – this is the art. She has the skill of asking the right questions to lead teams toward a profitable solution. Consider her your go-to for inventory management, merchandise planning and forecasting. She will bring to your team advanced acumen of the Microsoft suite of tools, especially Excel. Her many technical skills are rooted in soft skills that create inspiration, resolve conflict and make a day at the office run smoothly. She is a great mentor because she takes the time to listen and educate to the person’s learning style. Tracy is focused on the big picture and jumps in to assist as needed, although not specific to her job description, because she cares. Believe in her. You will be glad you did.", "Tracy hired me as an Assistant Financial Planner at Nordstrom where I reported directly to her. I came into the job with little to no knowledge of retail planning, financial planning, or retail math. She taught me everything I needed to know about financial planning, how to do the job, and always found time to help me no matter how much she had on her plate. While I was learning the job she attended meetings with me when I needed her assistance and support, but also knew when to push me out of my comfort zone to handle things on my own. As my manager, she helped me fix mistakes I made while planning, and turned it into a learning experience so I didn't make those same mistakes again. After a year of reporting to and learning from Tracy, I was promoted to Financial Planner, which would not have been possible without her mentorship and confidence in me. We were then peer Financial Planners for the next three years, but the mentorship did not stop. Most recently, Tracy had one of the biggest workloads across all Financial Planners in the company and still always made herself available to answer questions, explain concepts, run through scenarios, or help with new processes. She has been a major player in the success of my career and I will forever be grateful for the time she invested in me.", and "Tracy is a fantastic mentor! She has the amazing ability to patiently teach difficult subjects. I have had the privilege of having Tracy as a mentor and co-worker for the last 3.5 years. As a mentor, if I wasn’t picking up on how she was explaining something, she would intuitively see my struggle and re-direct her approach until she came at it from the right angle that made sense to me! Not only does she know her stuff but she can teach it in more than one way so others can figure out the process in a manner that their brains understand! She really listens to my questions and how I phrase things in order to teach in a way I comprehend. This is a unique skill, it takes knowledge, patience and tact!! Tracy is extremely smart and knowledgeable and knows how all the pieces fit together in our role as Financial Planners. If I am stumped on a problem, she patiently works through the potential causes until we figure out the answer and how to fix it. I am so thankful Tracy has shared her time and expertise with me!"
