Accomplishments

While the General Manager at My Dollar General Location, I was able to turn the failing stores sales targets from 13/13 in the District to 7/13 in a few short months. Increase sales by over 50% year over year, and heavily reduce unnecessary overstock of merchandise as well as reduce missing products on the sales floor by nearly 40%.

The customer satisfaction score increased and the daily customer count increased around 25%.

Bowling

I was in search of a new physical sporting event out of Highschool, and looked to choose bowling with some of my colleagues as a low impact sport that I will be able to play for the foreseeable future. This has been a fun group exercise and quite a therapeutic one at that.
