I have worked on several initiatives and have enjoyed success through innovation of approaches tailored to the needs of the organization.I engage those around me to partner with me in maximizing profit for the company. I never stop learning and am always willing to support and teach those around me. Succeeding is a team effort – not something done alone.With strength in data analytics, I’ve always been a “numbers guy”. Being truly analytical has opened the doors for me to truly shine in my career.I also thrive at bridging the gap between various departments within an organization. Being able to talk the lingo from one group to another, I have been recognized for creating a climate in which people want to excel. I strive to set challenging but attainable goals – while aggressively pursuing successful outcomes.I am very proud of the training process I put into place and the new software I implemented to increase efficiency and profitability. My blended skill set makes me unique, as I can apply my operations focus in process and procedures, and leverage my complimentary skills to deliver great training programs and technologies that deliver results while never interrupting the business.Specialties – Statistical Analysis, Authoring Training Manuals, Customer Service, Loss Prevention, Budgeting, Excel, Vendor Management, Basic Accounting Functions, Pricing Strategy, Competitive Pricing, Building Displays, Space Management, Stock Management, Retail Markdown Strategy, Cash Handling, Merchandising, DSD (Direct Store Delivery), SoftGrocer, KSS/PriceStrat, AS400
