Supervisor Talent Social Marketing for QVC

So excited for this new chapter in my life..!!
.....Supervisor Talent Social Marketing for QVC


QVC has been my passion for 24 years .....to think when I started in 1989 as a wee pup that I would grow into such a professional young lady.  TO think how did this happen and I can only say that it's truly the direct result of a fantastic man who was my mentor, my coach, and truly another father to me for the last 14 years of my life.  My Boss, the Executive Vice President of QVC's Customer Fulfillment Services, John Hunter. 

See I was his Executive Assistant for 14 of those 24 years...working side by side with him, learning the nuances that were QVC, learning what it meant to exceed the expectations of every customer, to keep our word and do the right thing, to be responsible for our actions, and continually strive to improve, and above all to make a difference!  To say he molded me into an intelligent, professional young lady would be such an understatement.  To this I can only say THANK YOU.. to my beloved boss... thank you!

...and well it was now time for my boss to retire... and for me to grow and utilize some of those life learnings.

A-HA... but to find that perfect fit... the position that would embrace who I was ....and who I am... the challenge to mesh the analytical with the creative.. the left brain with the right brain...the sane with the crazy... . 

Over the course of the past year my boss and I laid out a plan to educate and substantiate who I was, in order for me to land that best suited position to embrace that charisma that is me. (I think this was a nice way for him to say that they broke that mold when I was born so let's see what we can do with it)... kinda of funny since my real father said the same thing.  Things that make you go HMMM.  

The last few months have been a whirlwind of activity.... a conglomeration of resume rewrites, interviews, and rebranding of my image.  Promoting myself to individuals, making them understand who I truly am....that I really was all that... and more.  To think that creating, maintaining and sourcing a vintage online business; authoring a book on my triathlon experience; creating a website and facebook social platforms; being an advocate for cancer research and education; and mentoring and leading people would become of some value!  ALAS!

Meshing my life learnings and social skills landed me this amazing opportunity to work with the Talent at QVC and their social platforms.  To be able to help coach, mentor, and advise people so they become the best that they can be, what a truly fantastic opportunity!

PS: Given the fact that I haven't accidentally walked on stage while they were filming live..well I can only assume this means they will keep me for a few more days... although I can be a bit mouthy at times... ... I am fairly passionate about what I believe in... perhaps I can blame that on my boss or dad too... !?

Eh?!
