HI THERE! I'M SAMANTHA

Owner, Founder

I am a Retail Management Professional with 10+ years of retail experience in fashion and consumer goods. I have worked in buying, planning, replenishment, product development and store management. I graduated from Ryerson University with a Bachelor of Commerce Degree, majoring in Retail Management. I am also a former Ryerson University Teacher’s Assistant for Retail IT and Retail Operations courses. One of the biggest learning curves I have seen new hires have to overcome is with the use of Excel. Most are unaware and unprepared on how heavily reliant a Merchant is with Excel. So, I started Retail Simplified to help better prepare aspiring Retail Merchants for their careers in a buying office.
