I am an Operations-focused Store Supervisor at Under Armour with a strong foundation in retail execution, team leadership, and process optimization. I was promoted into Operations after demonstrating consistent performance in Visual Planning, where I led floor sets, visual execution, and brand-aligned merchandising strategies.In my current Operations role, I support day-to-day store operations including labor planning, workflow execution, inventory flow, and sales floor coverage. I partner closely with leadership to drive efficiency, uphold brand standards, and create a high-performance team environment while delivering a strong customer experience.My background in visual planning allows me to approach operations with a strategic, detail-oriented mindset—balancing brand presentation with operational efficiency. I am particularly skilled in cross-functional collaboration, task prioritization, and coaching team members to execute at a high level.I am actively seeking opportunities in Operations, Business Operations, or Operations Coordination roles where I can apply my leadership experience, process-driven thinking, and passion for continuous improvement beyond the retail environment.
