Summary

Current role as owner and head instructor at Martial Arts School, other then day to day operations, I'm in charge of everyone's safety while training. I promote and demote based on students performance. Organize curriculum taught to kids and adults. Always looking for better ways to implement training to improve performance and customer satisfaction. At State Farm I was also an Auditor/Inspector for several years. This position entailed vehicle inspection, making sure our preferred shops were following correct repair procedures in regards to safety, function, appearance and company guidelines. Additional training and feedback would be completed based on results of inspections. Noticed a lack of education in RV and motorcycle repair. I implemented and taught courses to help team members gain better understanding of RV and Motorcycle repair. Demonstrated experience leading teams, launching new products and achieving growth objectives. Adept at identifying and capitalizing on opportunities. Proven leader and strategic thinker, adept in operations management and team leadership
