  Owner Operator, Horse Training and Boarding Facility

  I owned a successful equine business in Redlands, CA, Valley Springs, CA and Tucson, AZ where I boarded horses, trained, bred and raised foals, gave lessons, clinics, and judged open shows. I have shown and earned State, National, and World Championship titles. I have worked and competed in several disciplines and breeds along with all aspects of managing and running a horse facility in the barn and in the office. I am experienced with the products and businesses related to the equine industry. I have an extensive list of contacts and associates in the horse business.

  Guardian Safety Holdings, LLC

  Jul 2016 - now

  I collaborate with key intracompany partners to accurately understand project requirements, define efficient implementation strategies, and effectively solve project issues. I effectively helped guide my current employer and our team through the Covid-19 pandemic, during which our company's stock needs and revenue quadrupled. When business slowed down, I worked to scale down warehouse inventory and keep sales at profitable levels by moving more purchases to direct shipments. I then was instrumental in implementing a change of ERP programs to Oracle Netsuite and balance our warehouse stock to direct ship requirements. Show less
