After a couple months in the role — and after reconnecting with so many friends and peers in Vegas at Sweets & Snacks — I’m excited to officially share that I’ve joined Taste of Nature as Director of Sales. I’ve been fortunate to spend my career working alongside incredible people across the confection and snack industries, and I’m grateful for the warm welcome I’ve already received in this new chapter. Taste of Nature has an outstanding team, strong brands, and tremendous opportunity ahead. I’m looking forward to building new partnerships, strengthening existing relationships, and contributing however I can to the company’s continued growth. Excited for what’s ahead.
