## About

```text
At WinCo Foods, I oversee all business aspects of a store with 175+ employees and direct merchandising strategy. I forecast sales, inventory demand, and labor requirements while partnering with vendors to grow business units and profit margins.

I developed individuals through the Manager Apprentice Program and promoted Assistant Manager and Store Manager candidates. Earlier, I managed store operations at WinCo Foods, worked in route sales at Frito Lay, and managed a department at Target.
