      • Jul 2003 - Nov 2013

      This position allowed me the opportunity to develop an in-house gemstone and restyling program from scratch. We now have an annual volume topping $2 million with an event stores can embrace and support. I work with vendors not associated with our mass-volume suppliers to maintain a unique product selection, with the added bonus of being able to test-market new or different items. I also develop shows from outside vendors, scheduling upwards of 500+ single-day events per year, which brings in around $5.5 million in incremental business.
