What brand(s) do you work for?Good SamWhat other teams do you work with the most?Overseeing the brand design for Good Sam, I get to collaborate cross-departmentally with almost every team in the enterprise, but most closely with the Digital Media and Marketing Automation teams.What is your favorite thing about your job and why?The people make this job what it is through and through. At every level of the business, every teammate is incredibly passionate and knowledgeable about their area of expertise. It's reflected in the work they do, the relationships they've built, and the countless years they've spent and grown within the enterprise. I can't help but feel inspired and invigorated every day because of them.What made you interested in working in the outdoor recreation industry?Admittedly, I never considered myself outdoorsy, outside of laying on a beach, until I married someone who feels centered in nature. While I've since discovered my own joy in being outdoors, I love the idea of helping others find their own connection, whether in small instances or in a full-time commitment to the lifestyle.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?:Work/life balance has always been an important factor to me when thinking through my career, but even more so as I've become a mom for the first time. CWH understands that while I still want to be fulfilled and challenged professionally, I don't want to compromise the role I play in my family – I can be successful as both a team leader in the office and as a mom at home. This balance takes setting and respecting boundaries while also encouraging my team members to do the same for themselves, but I've felt nothing but support from my CWH family along the way.What advice would you give to someone applying to a job at Camping World?Don't be afraid to ask for what you want or expect out of a job at CWH! You'll be surprised at where an opportunity might lead, but you won't regret the journey.
