ABOUT JULIE TIMM

With over 15 years of experience as a product creation leader, I\'ve had the privilege of managing cross-functional teams and spearheading the development of innovative apparel strategies for some of the world’s most prominent apparel brands. My approach is rooted in integrating athlete and consumer insights, data analytics, and market trends to drive impactful results. I am continually recognized for boosting revenue growth, operational excellence, creating sustainable initiatives, and enhancing team collaboration. Throughout my career, I\'ve cultivated a diverse skill set encompassing various facets of product creation:* Mens, Womens, and Kids Apparel Creation and Merchandising: From performance to outerwear, I\'ve led the development of apparel assortments across all classifications.* International + Domestic Product Creation: I\'ve navigated the complexities of global markets, ensuring seamless product launches across the Americas, Europe, and Asia.* Vertical, Wholesale, and Quick-Turn Calendar Management: I excel in orchestrating efficient production schedules to meet market demands.* Promo, TEAM, Olympic, and Licensed Apparel Strategy & Creation: My experience extends to managing promotional, team, and licensed apparel for major events and partnerships.* Sourcing Expertise: I have a proven track record in managing factory allocations, negotiating costs, and optimizing time and action plans. I have been fortunate to take a career sabbatical to focus on personal interests and self-development, broadening my perspective and enhancing my adaptability through volunteering, skill-building workshops, and international travel. This time away from the professional environment has re-centered my perspective, reinvigorated my passion for my career, and equipped me with new insights and skills that I’m excited to bring to my next role. I am eagerly re-entering the workforce with a fresh outlook and a renewed commitment to making a meaningful impact for your brand and organization.I am now actively seeking leadership opportunities where I can leverage my expertise in Product Creation, Merchandising, and Operations to elevate your team, your brand, and your business. If that sounds interesting to you, I look forward to learning more about how we can work together!
