I have over a decade of experience in marketing, media management, and creative brand-building. I’ve proven my ability to design engaging campaigns, community-building experiences, and boost social media platforms for company growth. I have over 10 years of experience with POSMs at Trader Joe’s, with a focus on boosting customer engagement and driving in-store visibility. Trader Joe’s has been a huge part of my life, and I’ve learned so much from working there. On a daily basis at Trader Joe’s, I was sharpening my communication skills as a Manager to provide customer service that would not only have people coming back but would make them feel like family. While working there for over 13 years, I developed a passion for wine and tastings that expanded my palette. Since then, I’ve truly enjoyed visiting many wineries that California has to offer, and it’s only grown my interest in wine more. Prior to that, I worked as a Book Editor for the For Dummies series, where I honed my skills in editing, fact-checking, and transforming complex information into tangible, reader-friendly content for consumers worldwide.
