At New Balance, I’ve been at the forefront of reintroducing our US Military footwear line. I manage the entire product development cycle—from concept to commercialization—while ensuring everything aligns with quality, cost, and productivity targets. One of my proudest achievements has been securing $8M in annual recurring revenue by delivering high-performance, breathable, and Berry-compliant footwear materials that meet strict government standards. • I thrive in high-pressure environments, where timelines are tight, but I’ve consistently delivered 100% on-time seasonal releases by keeping the creative and commercialization teams in sync, even with the complexities of government programs. • Collaboration with suppliers has been key in developing cutting-edge materials that give us a competitive edge, all while staying within budget and exceeding productivity goals.

At Teton Outfitters, I played a pivotal role in exploring new opportunities, such as expanding into the electric biking apparel market—an idea that unlocked $1M in projected incremental revenue. I used data-driven insights to influence executive decisions and ensure on-time product launches through effective cross-functional coordination. • I’m passionate about innovation, and one of my key projects focused on improving the rider experience by addressing common issues like overheating and discomfort in motorcycle gear. • I also led a strategic shift toward adventure and street riding apparel, helping the company capitalize on emerging trends in the growing electric biking sector.

During a major company relocation and restructuring, I ensured that our product development didn’t miss a beat. Managing a team of two, I kept seasonal calendars on track and helped drive the brand’s first positive revenue position—achieving $5M in profitability. • By improving communication between design, production, and overseas teams, I spearheaded 30-40% growth within a $50M brand. • I also delivered significant cost savings by analyzing blueprints and vendor partnerships, always finding ways to maintain innovation without compromising on quality.

At Timberland Tree, I was responsible for managing the development of 100+ SKUs each season, all while ensuring alignment with seasonal trends and material innovation. I drove the launch of a new athleisure footwear line that resulted in 20% growth in the category. • My work was heavily focused on sustainability, including the introduction of non-leather and eco-friendly materials that met market demands. • I also developed rapid reporting methods to enhance decision-making within the team, enabling quicker responses to sourcing and production challenges.

In my role at Timberland Pro, I played a critical role in upgrading reporting systems to improve global communication between planning teams and production facilities. I helped the company navigate capacity constraints while still achieving 10-15% business growth. • One of my key contributions was leveraging SAP data to make strategic decisions that optimized factory demand and prioritized revenue growth. • I also played an essential role in SAP’s global implementation, which improved production coordination and overall operational efficiency.
