With a passion for cycling and outdoors, I honed my skills at Trek Bicycle in the Retail Services Department, where I consulted, designed and influenced more than 200 bicycle retail spaces worldwide. This experience led me to the role of Lead Store Designer for Retail Services, embodying our shared mantra: “If dealers successful, we [TREK] are successful.” I continue to uphold the value of this principle today. My focus is on creating tailored store designs and space plans that met the unique needs of clients in diverse retail settings. I collaborated closely with Architects to ensure these plans aligned with local regulations and that construction drawings reflected the original vision. Throughout this process, I prioritized brand consistency, operating within strict budgets, timelines, and operational parameters. I led teams through every stage of implementation, ensuring seamless execution.
