Tracey Moses

Tracey Moses

SVP Marketing & Product

Tracey has had a 20+ diverse career starting in Account Management to Consulting in various verticals. The bulk of her career was working in Consumer Marketing, Strategic Planning and building brands with a keen eye on answering customers needs. She brings the process and brand management skills from large companies and scrappy, creative experiences from small. Like a rainbow swirl, wraps them together to help grow consumer awareness and spread the joy.

Prior to Candy Club, Tracey worked at United Airlines, Mattel, The Picture People and Conceptus finally landing on her own Consulting business – where the sweetness of her time with Candy Club drew her in to close up her own shop and come on board.

Tracey’s favorite candy is the Gummy Butterflies because they are the most delectable soft gummies around. (but she hates them because she can eat one jar in one sitting!)
