Research & business analysis
Identify, organize and evaluate the business information, both internal and external, needed for meaningful AI-assisted analysis, immediate decisions and long-term strategic planning.

As a senior executive at Levinsohn Textiles, I work across business planning and strategy, sales and communications, product development, sourcing, and compliance. My role increasingly focuses on building custom AI tools to strengthen our offerings and improve efficiency and profitability.
I bring 40 years of business experience, a decades-long interest in AI, and hands-on experience applying it to real business challenges. I can help you and your business identify where AI can make a meaningful difference and put it to work.
Alongside my ongoing role at Levinsohn Textiles, I accept select independent consulting engagements with the company’s knowledge and agreement.

Shelfie compares live listings against your real product information and available inventory, and flags each potential problem with a direct link for a person to verify.
Handshake reads every customer's compliance manual and builds one master manual that covers them all, for your factory partners to sign.
I created Loom, Shelfie and Handshake at Levinsohn Textiles, and I present them with their permission.
