As Vice President of Retail Channels, the past 20 years were spent with Cosentino an international manufacturer of stone products based in Spain. In my tenure with the company, we doubled our business to over 1 billion annual revenue in North America completely reinventing our business model and attacking new customer segments. In this role my area of expertise was product and program development, along with negotiations with some of the world’s largest retailers including Home Depot, Lowe’s, and Costco. As an executive of the Cosentino leadership team, I was involved in setting our sales strategy and the supporting education to our salesforce of 110 representatives . In my role at Cosentino, I was the final interviewer and decision maker corporately for the field salesperson role. I helped recruit and develop numerous employees to grow and accept new responsibilities within the company. After having graduated from Babson College Wellesley Massachusetts with my B.S. in Business Management, I began a journey across 4 states eventually leading me to the Home Depot corporate office in Atlanta Georgia. As senior director at Home Depot, I was responsible for the strategy and execution of initiatives focusing on installation services of Interior products including (Flooring, Kitchen cabinetry, Countertops, Millwork, Water heaters, Window coverings). Here in Wilmington, I am staying very active at the gym, biking, and golf course, along with volunteering my time to help others.
