What have you been up to in the last 20 years?
I worked at several retail stores including Party Zone, Carlton Cards, and Camelot Music at Randhurst after graduating.
In 1996, I started working at Crate & Barrel in the distribution warehouse as a picker/ packer.
Rick and I bought a house in Wheeling in August 1998 and were married in October 1998. The Crate & Barrel Distribution Center relocated in July 1999 where I also changed my focus to Packaging and Shipping. During these years, we made several trips to Pennsylvania and Florida. We welcomed our first child Andrea in December 2004.
We lost my father after a long and valiant fight with cancer in 2006. In February 2007, I moved to the Crate & Barrel Corporate offices in Northbrook to be a Purchasing Buyer for all Packaging Materials. After being with Crate & Barrel for almost 13 years, I made the choice to leave and look for some new challenge.
I went on 2 interviews and accepted the position that I currently have now at US Foodservice. I work as a Market Basket Coordinator or Bid Analyist focusing on Healthcare and Education.
