Bio
Lisa Jacka
I worked closely with Kushika on the implementation of dunnhumby applications, mainly dhPrice. Kushika always exhibited a positive attitude, willingness to learn and great initiative - both in regards to pricing and real-life business acumen. She has a very strong work ethic, great inter-personal skills and is able to drive courageous conversations with key stakeholders. She is a valued team member and a pleasure to work with.

Kushika was a very warm and supportive manager to work with. She has a friendly nature and was extremely approachable as a leader. She is a thorough professional and is very knowledgeable in retail concepts. She provided extreme clarity and unbiased guidance in merchandising and buying areas when I worked with her as an assistant merchandiser for Nautica. She is calm and confident under pressure which really helped me learn how to focus in a fast paced environment. I really enjoyed working with Kushika and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a talented, capable manager.
