Accomplishments

In my early twenties, I was working two jobs. I was working at Kmart in South Zanesville and also at Zales. This was in 2012. I had a goal to become a Key Holder at Zales. I worked hard to achieve that goal. Finally in 2015 I interviewed for that position as it became available. I got promoted to the position and I was able to leave Kmart. When I started at Muscle Feast, I was a production worker. I worked my way up to become a production lead.
