About Karla C.
I was led into category management through my desire to have a direct impact on the lives of others. Since a young age, my for food was cemented by my grandmother - she nourished our family through her lavish culinary concoctions. This love has evolved through the years, by understanding how important it is to bring food to people\'s tables led me into category management.
