'Yen joins us at a time when we are seeing strong customer response to the changes we have made in the business and have exceeded our plan for two consecutive years,' said Bob Hull, Co-CEO. 'Her deep legal expertise and robust background in the retail industry, combined with a proven track record advising Boards, individual directors and executive teams, makes her the ideal leader for this role. We are thrilled to have her join our team and Executive Committee.'

She is a champion for diversity, equity, and inclusion, and beyond her workplace responsibilities, she is passionate about giving back by donating her time and voice to organizations that focus on advancing and empowering women, people of color and other underrepresented groups. Most recently, she has been the recipient of the Outstanding 50 Asian Americans in Business Award, the Asian American Bar Association of New York's Women's Leadership Award, and the Women Influence & Power in Law Thought Leadership Award.
