Summary
I worked at Lowe's Home Improvement for sixteen years across many positions: including electrical, plumbing appliances and millwork and flooring departments.
As a sales specialist I always worked and prided my self on providing customers with the best customer service possible, and exceeding sales targets.
As a Manager I focused on making sure employees had all the tools necessary to complete the task assigned to them. Focusing on team building and training new employees and helping existing employees and the department reach their goals.
I also worked to maintain stock levels and ordering of product and help to administer Lowe's merchandising standards in the department.
