Sr. Vice President - RV Inventory Operations

What brand(s) do you work for? Camping World What other teams do you work with the most? The RV Inventory Team works very closely with Field Operations to ensure proper flow of product into locations, communicate pricing & initiatives, and to make sure everyone is on the same page regarding the product mix/offering of the individual location. We also work very closely with Digital Marketing to make sure any new products or floorplans are getting reviewed/promoted according to the largest vision of the company. What is your favorite thing about your job and why? Throughout my career, I've always been allowed to wear many hats and encouraged to find creative new ways to make existing processes/programs better, or even to replace them altogether, if necessary. We get to be both inward-facing, working with our internal teams here at Camping World, and outward-facing, working with manufacturers, shipping companies, and even the occasional customer. What is the most rewarding project you have worked on here and why? Over the years, there are a number of projects that I'm proud to have worked on with a great team of people, from the first creation of our company-wide pricing model to the Used Valuation Team, and most recently, the building/planning of our private label pontoon boat, the Nepallo! What charity/cause/activity is most important to you and why? I have a soft spot for kids in need, whether they are hungry (Feed My Starving Children) or if they found themselves sick (Make-a-Wish or Care Camps). What advice would you give to someone applying to a job at Camping World? If you have a great attitude, a willingness to learn, and are looking for a company you can work hard and have fun with, then Camping World is the best choice there is. We have an amazing group of people that are always open to answering questions, mentoring individuals who are seeking growth, and at the same time, are always looking for individuals with experience who we can learn from.

Social Media Creative Manager

What brand(s) do you work for? Good Sam What other teams do you work with the most? I work very closely with the Engagement and Influencer Management within my current social media team. Outside of social, I work closely with the Design team in order to maintain visual brand consistency across all platforms. What is your favorite thing about your job and why? When I first started working on the Good Sam brand, I was amazed at the amount of creative freedom I was given by my team. It's something I had always desired in previous positions at other companies but felt like I was being held back a bit. It's so relieving to have trust, open communication, and collaboration within my current team and makes me that more excited to get to work at Camping World every day with authentic and invested individuals! What made you interested in working in the outdoor recreation industry? I lived in Denver for 2.5 years before moving to Chicago. I absolutely loved my time there, but realized I had taken advantage of the incredible geographic location once I moved back to the MidWest and no longer had mountains at my doorstep. In my personal opinion, moments shared outdoors soothe the soul and that's a feeling I'll continue to long for, and wish to help others experience, through this brand! How has Camping World Holdings helped you succeed as a woman in the workplace? How is this different than other companies you have worked at? Right off the bat, Camping World proved to have exceptional diversity working within the brands. My previous company was primarily dominated by men, and as a woman in that workplace, I, unfortunately, felt like I didn't have much of a say. Now I get to work with both men and women who build me up, and although all are successful, the women around me, in particular, are incredibly driven and inspiring. It's an amazing feeling to see multiple women who have previously succeeded and continue to succeed within this company because they paved the way for other women like me to do the same. What advice would you offer other women who are interested in a career at a Camping World Holdings brand? Got for it! Hopefully, these pages will prove to you that regardless of your gender, anyone and everyone can succeed here if you put your mind to it and are invested. There are thousands of women at Camping World who are living proof of that!
