In short, retail is my passion. For years, I've been fascinated with the processes behind the decisions made to entice consumers to make valuable purchases at brick-and-mortar stores. Throughout my college career, I have been able to experience this first-hand, with positions at corporations such as The Kroger Company, Target Corporation, and Starbucks Coffee Company. I have also had the privilege of being the marketing manager for a local business in the Toledo, Ohio area.
