Summary

Dynamic Store Manager with a proven track record at Kohl's, Marshall’s and Walgreens. My greatest strength is team building and customer service. I enhanced employee morale and reduced turnover through effective training, mentoring and coaching. I knew I was meant to lead a team since High School where I got my first taste of leading a team. I was chosen by my peers to be varsity captain during my senior year in football, basketball and track & field. I am an optimistic leader where I believe anything is possible with the right attitude.
