CAMP Rebrand 2022

Assited with CAMP's rebranding launch in 2022 and the integration/merger of the CAMP/CASSIN brands under one title (CAMP). Included onboarding of wholesale partners, redefinition of CASSIN and its merger with the CAMP name, and messaging around the new logo and vision of the brand.

New Product Launch - Prospector 106 Ski - Meier

Assisted in the development, GTM strategy, and launch of multiple new skis in 2019, including the Prospector. My role was integral to the strategy for production and sale of all new ski lineups. With my team, I showcased the new lineup at 2019 Outdoor Retailer Snow Show (trade show).

Custom Ski/Snowboard Program Manager - Meier

I'm a connoisseur of the backcountry and an adventure sport enthusiast to my core who's every decision is heavily influenced by the ever-growing need for environmental and social responsibility. I utilize my technical and business backgrounds along with my outdoor experience to further innovate and develop products to remove the barrier for what is achievable through human exploration. I believe the needs for environmental improvement and product development are the same, and should be treated as such.

Most days you'll catch me climbing, skiing, biking, running, backpacking, paddle boarding, practicing yoga, or anything else outside.
