How did you start at Talbots?

I originally joined Talbots in 2011 as an Assistant Sales Manager at the Short Hills Mall. During that time, I was able to truly develop my skills with styling, talent, and relationship building. A year later, I was promoted to our newest concept store at Garden State Plaza. Less than a year later, I was able to step up and take on our North Brunswick, NJ store as a Store Manager. During this time, I participated in mentoring, market responsibilities during the holiday in our Boston market, and trunk shows. The next step for me was to take on our Bridgewater location as the Store Manager where this was my last position before stepping away from the business knowing that I would be back eventually.  

Fast forward to August 2023, I rejoined and came back home. I restarted my journey at the Chimney Rock location and shortly after the Morristown location. During my current journey, I've had the pleasure to take on the next steps in my career as a Training Store Manager for Haven Well Within as well as a Talent Scout for NY/NJ/CT markets. The Talent Scout role enables me to serve as a subject matter expert on tools and resources for talent attraction at the district-level.

How did you discover your love of training? 

I discovered my love for training through mentorship. Having the ability to watch someone grow in their role and strive for their full potential, who then will impact and influence others, is truly what fulfills me.
