The CK Daily – Introducing Estela Brill, Our New Director of Ecommerce! ✨
Let’s give a warm welcome to Estela Brill, our newest Director of Ecommerce! Here’s a glimpse into what drives her and why we’re thrilled she’s joined the team.
About Estela: Born and raised in Miami, FL before moving to Atlanta during high school. After studying abroad, she attended the University of Maryland where she majored in Government & Politics, but life took her in a different direction. She’s now drawn to the world of Merchandising & Marketing.
Fun Fact: She is double-jointed in all her fingers.
Q&A with Estela
Q: What sparked your interest in tennis, and how’s your game coming along?
A: I’ve always wanted to learn how to play tennis! I love other racket sports like Raquetball and pickle ball and I figured now’s the time to learn! Tennis is teaching me patience more than anything because as soon as I get one thing, something else needs to be worked on.
Q: What’s your approach to mentoring and leading your team?
A: I believe in creating lanes and building moats around my team members so they can focus on deep work and innovation. I am also a big believer in not being afraid to experiment with ideas and “failing up” by learning through iteration. It’s important to me that my team feels empowered to question each other’s ideas and my own ideas! I believe this fosters a culture of innovation and critical thought.
Q: What do you hope to bring to the CK community through your role?
A: I aim to elevate the CablesAndKits customer experience by making it effortless for people to find the right equipment and expand their knowledge of network solutions, cabling, hardware, etc. Whether someone is a seasoned professional with specific requirements or newcomer exploring options, I want to ensure our digital platform delivers real value at every touchpoint.
We’re beyond excited to have Estela on board and can’t wait to see how she elevates the CK experience! Be sure to give her a warm welcome and stay tuned for the exciting initiatives she’ll lead to make shopping with us even easier and more enjoyable. ✨
