Summary

I’m looking to take this next step into a Warehouse Lead role. I'm excited to bring my hands-on experience, my focus on safety standards, and my passion for motivating a team to your shift. Over the last few years, I've focused on mastering warehouse workflows, specifically how to keep accuracy high when the floor gets fast-paced. I'm looking to bring that focus on safety and team coordination to this Lead role. I’ve focused on mastering inventory accuracy, optimizing team workflows, and ensuring we hit our daily shipping and receiving targets safely. In my current role, I don't just handle my own throughput; I frequently step up to coordinate shift transitions, troubleshoot inventory discrepancies, and help onboard and train our newer team members.
