Activities
During my working years I have had the privilege to experience different positions both at a sales level and now at a warehouse. My time in retail was spent mostly as a manager and I was able to be involved in the establishment of a new store. Wal Mart distribution has shown me another side of the workforce and I have enjoyed learning the many parts that keep the flow moving there. Outside of work I enjoy sports and spending time with my family.
