Realtor Associate
Coldwell Banker
Privately Held; 51-200 employees; Real Estate industry
January 2006 – February 2010 (4 years 2 months) San Francisco Bay Area
As a trusted Realtor in Silicon Valley, I primarily represented individuals from high-tech industries. I built my business on a foundation of trust, communication, & local market knowledge. Real Estate was the perfect compliment to my need to work in a fast-paced & highly dynamic environment.
My results driven approach & attention to detail helped me earn respect from my clients and many top agents in Santa Clara County. Most new clients were acquired through aggressive prospecting, word of mouth referrals, & networking amongst other agents. I always took pride in the great care I offered my clients, making their needs a priority in every transaction.
District Visual Manager
Abercrombie & Fitch
Public Company; 10,001+ employees; ANF; Retail industry
April 2002 – October 2006 (4 years 7 months)
As a District Visual Manager for Abercrombie & Fitch, I oversaw the visual presentation of 5 Bay Area stores, with a combined annual revenue of about $14MM. I was responsible for all in-store visual standards, full-cycle recruiting, & target revenue goals. I actively managed 200+ associates & 18 managers between the 5 locations.
I routinely evaluated all visual elements within my district, surfacing defects that impacted the emotional branding of the company. I taught & inspired creativity in my employees/managers, to help drive sales through higher visual standards. I was credited with designing several key processes within our visual department, ultimately helping to increase sales within my district by 23% over my last 12-month period.
