Summary

results driven Store Manager with over four years of experience in optimizing daily operations and enhancing customer relations. Proven ability to train and mentor staff, implement operational improvements, and achieve measurable increases in customer satisfaction and store profitability. I became an M.I.T trainer because i love to teach and i've ran many stores and have learned alot from each one.. I take the time my first couple days with managers in training to get to know them and how they learn because some are note takers,some have to just dive in , we all learn differently so i think its important to figure that part out first so i can teach them the best for success
