Then, in 2005, she joined Big Y Foods and rose up the ranks through several positions of increasing responsibility in accounting and finance, including Controller (2010), Senior Director of Finance (2014), and Vice President of Finance (2016).
In addition to her role in the grocery retail industry, Jasmin also serves on the Executive Committee, as Treasurer for the YMCA of Greater Springfield, and on the finance committees for both the Massachusetts and Connecticut Food Associations.
