Summary

Creative Business Owner with exceptional background spent in Retail and Customer service. Proven leader with engaging demeanor and success working in most demanding environments. I believe that pride should be shown in everything you do. Talented in training and mentoring successful teams. I believe in keeping every work space tidy, well stocked and clear of all debris. As quick as the order arrives is a swift as it should be restocked. The moment you arrive at work any problems or "moods" should be left outside or at home. We are a team if any member of the team is broken it throws off the entire operation. Leadership is one of my most natural qualities. I have always been a people person one that has no problem telling when you are doing amazing or telling you when you are messing up. I worked in retail for so many years and owned my own business for years as well. although they might sound completely different. They really aren't at all. Working in a fast pace environment is where i excell.
