Working as a visual merchandiser at The Bowerbird taught me a great deal about communication, customer service, and teamwork.

Dealing with new merchandise on a daily basis kept things fun and fresh. Also dealing with merchandise from numerous categories such as, baby clothes, children’s toys, stationary, kitchen accoutrements, jewelry, bath products and housewares eluded endless possibilities for creativeness.

The store has hundreds of different vendors which made me channel my creativity to morph the similarities of merchandise within a display. One thing I took from my role as a visual merchandiser was that you can always make something out of nothing. No matter how much or little there is of a product there are always multiple options on how to display it to make the customer intrigued and wanting to know more about it.
