Summary

To Whom may be interested in partnering with me, I have a fervent love of customer service and a passion for sales. For the past 7 years I have been enjoying blending love of Premier Customer Service, Integrity and a penchant for mathematics as a Table Games Dealer at Parx Casino. Maintaining the standards of cash handling and a high paced, profit driven environment-with a smile.

Previously I have managed and developed at Gymboree, Vitamin World and multiple other retail locations. I have been lucky enough to have been taught to 'Find your sincerity' in every sale and I genuinely enjoy helping customers find new products and services that I know will make there day.

I am sales focused and would love to share the knowledge that I have acquired with new and existing team members. I have maintained that excellence, going beyond, IS standard procedure. I was one of the first to be ISSA certified when Vitamin World began the program.

The training that I have received has also been heavily security focused and detail oriented. From the Uniform Center at the Naval Station in Newport, RI to the Casino.

The opportunity to discuss contributions that I have made in the past as well as how I can bring increased profits and as well as knowledge would be available at any time.

Thank You for consideration.
