Julie Rodway Yoakum
Business Mentor @ HEMP: Helzberg Entrepreneurial Mentoring Program
About
As President of Kay and Peoples, I lead a team to sustainably source and innovate around our product offerings, keeping brand purpose and customer experience top of mind. My high-level career with P&L responsibility spans from omni-channel retail, vertical specialty retail, agency experience focused on strategy and brand development, to pure play e-commerce. I am a visionary and results-driven leader motivated by complex challenges and balancing strategic initiatives and project objectives. I have a reputation for building and leading strong and experienced teams, and my leadership experience is far-reaching within the corporate environment and with external business partners. Prior to joining Signet, I served as President of Helzberg Diamonds, Blue Nile-Chief Merchandising Officer, Client Services Director at Hornall Andersen Design Works, and multiple roles at Eddie Bauer. I am a board member at the Jewelers Vigilance Committee and am also a mentor at HEMP, https://www.hempkc.org/
