What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to utilize my security expertise while fostering a safe environment and promoting teamwork.

I am an experienced asset protection specialist currently working at Target, where I focus on preventing store shortages and building cases against repeat offenders. My dedication to creating a theft-prevention culture has led to strong relationships with store employees, and I have been recognized as the top performer in my district for recovery efforts.

Previously, I served as a Target Security Specialist, where I maintained a safe environment through routine patrols and effective incident documentation. My training of new employees on safety protocols has helped cultivate a strong security culture within the store. I also have experience as a Dasher with DoorDash, where I ensured timely deliveries and high customer satisfaction.
