I started working at Big Y at age 18. I found that Big Y didn't just help give me further knowledge on meat and poultry, but also a better opportunity to serve the community. Big Y has also taught me the importance fo showing up and proving your purpose as an employee. I was honored to receive "Rising Star of the Month" by taking my work ethic to the next level. I managed to demonstrate good service to the customers, good work ethic to my employers, and more importantly stayed busy at work consistently.
