About

As the Merchandising Manager for Shooting products at MidwayUSA, I am committed to providing our customers with the best selection, value, and service in the industry. I have over seven years of experience in merchandising management, and over 15 years of management experience at MidwayUSA.

My core competencies include category sales and inventory management, promotions planning, benchmarking and market position analysis, legal and regulatory compliance, and digital and print integration. I leverage these skills to drive sales and growth, optimize inventory and pricing, enhance the customer experience, and ensure quality and compliance. I have a strong background in email marketing, ad placement, print production, process creation and deployment, project budgeting, and digital asset management.
