He is upfront, honest and fair. He takes a collaborative approach with the vendors he works with, using his knowledge of consumer and market trends to create programs that maximize sales. Louis is a pleasure to work with.

I have had the opportunity to work with Louis since his days at Belk Department Stores, and most recently JCPenney. Louis is intelligent, hard-working, loyal, and someone who can be trusted to always be fair. He possess the ability to to drive meaningful businesses in various categories, pushing for best in class assortments, merchandising concepts, and promotional vehicles, all in an effort to maximize top line sales and enhance overall margin wherever possible. Based on his vast experience and industry knowledge, Louis is someone who will tell you where you stand with regard to what he likes, does not like, and what he needs from you in order to partner with you on great product. A trait that bright and constantly inspired buyers posses. He will be an asset to anyone's team and someone that you will always know can be counted on.
