Summary
I have many years of managerical experience. i have a strong work ethic. i feel that im a fair manager that attempts to meet people where they are. I am open to learning new things. I believe in training team members well and then trust them with the knowledge. i started as a merchandise lead, then assistant manager for Joann before being promoted to store manager. The same situation at KBtoys. i earned my position. I feel that I can quickly learn the clientele of my store and build a rapport with them that makes them fill like they are visiting a friend.
