Emerging Designer Brand Manager | 11/2021 - 05/2023

Representing and overseeing over 30 emerging and established brands in a designer retail section. I work with our corporate team to track and predict what brands are appealing to our customer, and whether brands should be graduated to other sectors of the store or exchanged with a new label. I personally research every brand on my floor, in order to be a nexus for our employees to better connect with their customers and introduce them to these labels. I merchandise our floor to showcase newer collections and product launches, and use social media to create content with our brands.
