What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values teamwork and offers opportunities for growth.

My work experience spans various roles, including cashier and hardware sales associate, where I honed my customer service skills and learned the importance of teamwork and communication. I thrive in fast-paced environments and enjoy engaging with customers to ensure their needs are met.

In addition to my employment, I have taken on leadership roles in summer programs, coordinating activities for children and ensuring a safe and nurturing environment. My volunteer experience further solidified my commitment to community service and working with diverse groups. I am eager to leverage my skills and experiences in a challenging position that allows me to contribute positively to a team.
