Derek Whited

Gulf Breeze,FL

Summary

I am a self driven 25 year old born and raised in Pensacola, Florida. This past December I completed my A.S. Degree in Cyber Security. I am hungry to learn and get with a company that we can both mutually excel together. While I was working at Buffalo Rock, I ran a vending machine route filling machines from Jay Fl, down to Bellview Fl. I learned so much about customer service and critical problem solving. I am hunting a Merchandiser position at Gulf Distributing, eager to learn different ways to grow revenue from inside a store compared to a vending machine.
