I had the pleasure of partnering with Candice on driving the cordless vacuum category for Dyson in the UK. Candice is extremely accomplished in translating insights and category objectives into how this translates into the retail landscape. Candice is innovative and explorative- always striving to ensure that Dyson is driving exceptional consumer experience at every touchpoint. I found it refreshing to work with Candice- she always made me think in a different way with the consumer at the heart of every decision. Would highly recommend Candice, she brings strong leadership, passion and value to any role she is in.
