At Lovevery, a rapidly expanding digitally native brand, I served in an interim role as Director of Physical Product Research & Strategy. My role centered on harnessing actionable insights and conducting thorough market research to strategically guide product innovations and developments. In close collaboration with the VP of Product, I spearheaded initiatives that are set to introduce groundbreaking product lines in 2025 and 2026. These strategies, while confidential until their respective launches, are designed to significantly alter the market landscape and enhance the brand's commitment to supporting child development through scientifically informed play products
