Summary

Very first job at 16 I was a Team member at KFC. Learned skills of teamwork and building. Also learned Customer service skills and Money handling skills. Started out as a Waitress and a delivery driver at the Beatrice Pizza Hut. Continued learning and practicing my customer service skills. Learned skills on how to follow and take direction, which lead me to management and can use those skills virtually anywhere. Where the company had me running shifts at a couple different stores at a time. Leaving in good standing to continue a college education, I pursued a degree in cosmetology where I completed 1800 hours of training and then received a Nebraska state cosmetology license. During my time in school I held a few jobs. One was at a chain salon and learned about the company while doing the reception work and then moved up to stylist after receiving my state license. Others I held while in school, I worked retail for a year working at a Sally beauty supply store, learning about getting to know products well so that I could make an increase in personal sales. This also taught me how to manage my time between a full time job and school. Moving from Nebraska to Pittsburgh during the Global Pandemic I found work as an Office manager at J&M Strategic Consulting. Learning on the job data entry from the CEO of J&M.
