While laying the groundwork for Royal Bloom, I gained valuable skills working as Operations Director of a small traffic engineering firm, Green Light Transportation. Prior to founding my business I was employed as a Visual Merchandising Manager & Trainer for House to Home (an experimental Home Depot Company), and a Visual Merchandiser & Assistant Accessory Buyer for Traditions, a French antique retailer in Menlo Park and Berkeley. While still completing my college degrees I was employed as a Textbook Narrator for Seattle Pacific University Disability Support Services, and a Sales Associate at Stanford Pottery Barn.
