Peoria,IL

Summary

I started working at the ripe age of 15 because my parents really wanted me to have that responsibility at a young age

Every job that I have had in the past I have worked to grow at and keep trying to work my way up and giving my all to

I’d say I’ve done my absolute best at every job I have worked at and it definitely shows

At buckle I loved that job I did have a option to maybe run my own store but I was only 19 and they wanted me to move out of the state for it and I wasn’t ready for that yet but I definitely would say I was a strong asset to that company

I would also say that I am very strong about getting people to buy something I have a good way of selling the items that someone might of just glanced at and will get them to buy by just using my words and talking about said item

But overall I would say that I’ve been a fantastic asset to each and every job I have worked at
