Innovation & Problem Solving (Limitless Entrepreneurial Spirit)

  • Introduce new approaches to paid media within the collectibles and memorabilia category, identifying opportunities to expand channel presence and improve existing processes.
  • Design and execute structured tests across creative, targeting, bidding strategies, and campaign architecture to surface scalable improvements.
  • Identify underperforming areas of spend and develop data-driven recommendations to reallocate budget toward higher-return opportunities.
  • Bring forward innovative ideas that help evolve how paid media operates across the Fanatics Commerce business.

Ownership & Execution (Determined & Relentless Mindset)
