Summary

My experience in retail and helping to execute a new store opening has taught me not only how to serve customers, but also how to work well with fellow team members to best meet our goals and get the job done with poise and efficiency. I use my problem-solving, organizational, and communication skills to help others. I'm proactive, take direction well, and am able to distinguish when it's time to lead versus when it's time to learn.
