Grossman has positioned HSNi as a leader in “boundary-less retail,” providing customers with seamless shopping experiences spanning multiple platforms. While television and digital sales saw steady growth this year, the company’s mobile sales skyrocketed by 46% and 17% of mobile shoppers were new customers, validating Grossman’s focus on staying ahead of both retail and technology trends. Despite a busy schedule, she makes time to mentor others. “For as much time as I devote to enriching the lives of others, it is returned to me tenfold.”

I encourage those that I mentor to be passionate about what you do and always strive to have lasting impact.
