About Michael Ablauf
I am a proven and successful retail professional with over 20+ years of experience in account & category management, and always looking to explore where I can make an impact at a brand and grow professionally. I have spent extensive time within retail buying, planning and product development roles at best-in-class organizations of varying size. Additionally, over the last 8 years, I have transitioned into account management with responsibilities for the largest account in North America, for one of the most recognizable global brands, adidas. My time in this role, has permitted me to showcase the passion and drive I have to bring new products and consumer experiences to market, exemplified by the unprecedented and historical growth we have delivered in the DNA category for the adidas brand.
