Summary

Adept at enhancing customer experiences and streamlining front-end operations, I leveraged my time at Walmart to significantly improve service efficiency and accuracy, achieving an exceptional transaction accuracy rate. My strong communication skills and ability to lead and collaborate with teams have consistently fostered positive environments and increased customer loyalty, and as a former stocking 1 associate I was also able to complete rigorous manual labor such as unloading trucks for hours on end.
