What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to leverage my leadership skills in a dynamic environment, focusing on team development and operational excellence.

I am an experienced manager with a robust background in the casino, food service, and retail industries. My career has been marked by a proven track record in team leadership, financial management, operational efficiency, and exceptional customer service. Currently, I serve as a Sales Manager at M&M Granite, where I lead a team of Sales Representatives, set KPI goals, and actively coach my team to drive business growth. My hands-on approach ensures that I lead by example, fostering an environment of collaboration and success.

Previously, I held various managerial roles, including General Manager at Domino’s Pizza, where I successfully led a team of over 20 employees and implemented innovative sales strategies that resulted in a 15% increase in annual revenue. My experience as an Assistant Store Manager at Walgreens allowed me to optimize store operations and significantly reduce inventory shrinkage. I pride myself on my ability to enhance customer satisfaction and operational efficiency, making me a valuable asset to any organization.
