Meet the Founder

For over 3 decades, Karyn has dedicated her career to the fine jewelry industry. Throughout her journey, she’s had the privilege of working alongside successful business owners, industry leaders, and vendor partners to transform inventory from one of their largest investments into one of their greatest competitive advantages.

Karyn’s expertise goes beyond inventory management. She helps retailers understand the story their data is telling - identifying opportunities to improve cash flow, increase profitability, and make more confident inventory buying decisions. By combining financial insight with practical retail experience, Karyn helps retailers replace guesswork with strategy.

Throughout her career, Karyn’s coached retailers across North America on inventory performance, business planning, financial metrics, vendor partnerships, and operational excellence. Whether analyzing non-performing inventory, optimizing open-to-buy, improving product mix, or developing long-term inventory strategies, Karyn’s focus remains the same: helping retailers build healthier, more profitable businesses.

What sets Karyn’s approach apart is the belief that inventory should never be viewed simply as a cost of doing business. It is one of the most valuable investments, and when managed strategically, it becomes a powerful driver of growth, cash flow, and long-term profitability.

LHA Inventory Excellence was founded on that principle.

Karyn’s mission is to provide retailers with the clarity, confidence, and strategic guidance they need to make smarter inventory decisions, strengthen financial performance, and create businesses that thrive for years to come.

Great inventory isn’t about having more. It’s about the right inventory, in the right place, at the right time - for the right reason.
