Who am I?

I'm a 3-yr RETHINK Retail Top Retail Influencer and Advisory Council member, named a Top 10 Movers & Shakers in Retail for 2021 by RIS News. Founder of the Retail Razor Show podcast that helps retailers and retail tech providers cut through the clutter in the industry. I'm currently the Director, Partner Marketing Advisor for Retail & Consumer Goods at Microsoft where I lead US partner go-to-market. I'm also a founding Advisory Council member at George Mason University’s Center for Retail Transformation. My goal is to help both retailers and retail tech solution providers understand current industry trends and what they should be doing about it to help fuel growth in their business! I've been part of the retail tech community for over two decades in both product and marketing roles that have allowed me to work with retailers in depth, understanding their business, and helping to make sense of complex and confusing technology. I've helped retail tech startups with their go-to-market strategy and advised retailers on digital transformation projects over the years. With my experience, I hope to give back to the industry and help others cut through the clutter and the noise to understand how to best use technology to solve retail problems from supply chain to e-commerce to customer experience and everything in between!

My Show

What is my podcast about and/or how does it relate to the playlist topic you chose?

The Retail Razor Show brings unique perspectives on current retail and retail technology trends and challenges. The show highlights the people that are transforming the industry with knowledge, experience, solutions, and leadership as well as explaining the trends themselves by bringing in industry experts to break down the reality vs the hype in every trend. We cover topics that are impacting the retail industry today and tomorrow. Our hope is that with each episode, whether you're a retailer or a tech provider, you come away with actionable knowledge that will help your business grow and serve your customers and employees better!

What is my podcast playlist about?

Our podcast isn't the only one serving the retail industry in unique ways and this playlist highlights the podcasts that are NOT about retail directly, BUT are still valuable to help you understand and learn from the best minds in business and their successes and failures. Plus, learn what the latest technologies have to offer and how you can use that knowledge to grow your retail business.
