Summary

Looking for opportunity to better myself. I have worked a variety of different jobs, each one with it's own set of skills required for the job and their own challenges. I have plenty of experience in leadership roles, being the main trainer for the stager position at Walmart and working as an assistant produce manager at Priceless IGA, and I am very reliable in my attendance. If given the opportunity, I would be a valuable employee for your company, and I look forward to hearing back from you.
