Summary

I am writing to express my interest in opportunities within your company. I recently graduated from Troy University with a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration and have gained valuable experience through customer service roles, business ownership, and daily operations management. Through owning and operating Countryside Kennels, LLC and Countryside Acres, LLC, I have developed strong communication, problem-solving, and organizational skills while managing customer relationships, scheduling, marketing, and day-to-day operations. These experiences have taught me how to work effectively in fast-paced environments, multitask efficiently, and provide a positive experience for customers. In addition, my experience working directly with customers at CJ’s Deer Processing has strengthened my ability to communicate clearly, work as part of a team, and handle customer needs in a professional and dependable manner. I take pride in being hardworking, adaptable, and willing to learn new skills that contribute to a team’s success. I am excited for the opportunity to continue growing professionally and would welcome the chance to bring my work ethic, customer service experience, and positive attitude to your organization. Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to hearing from you.
