The bolded items embody skills that I have developed over the course of my management career. For
over eight years I have been a manager for three different companies: one shipping, one restaurant, and
one big chain grocery store. In addition to my management jobs, I have also developed customer service
skills while working at my most recent job with Wizards of the Coast.
While working at Wizards, I provide account holders with my fantastic customer service skills as I
worked diligently to improve those skills. My job mostly entails listening to the customer, analyzing
problems, preparing written communications, and expressing ideas orally to individuals or groups. When

`
I am not relating to customers I am usually gathering the newest game information or expressing my
game knowledge of different concepts and principles.
Before working for Wizards, I worked as an assistant manager for Marc Glassman Inc., where I learned
how to develop plans for projects and coordinate team schedules. Also while working for this grocer, I
was able to interact with people at different levels. I often had to count inventory which I was able to do
by auditing the monthly financial reports and by calculating numerical data while checking for accuracy.
I was actively involved with making decisions, resolving employee conflicts, and coaching individuals to
be their best!
Most of my experience I have used to be an outstanding Assistant Manager and Customer Service
Representative, I developed while I was working for Chipotle Mexican Grill as a general manager. My
biggest priority was overseeing the operations of the restaurant. This meant developing and training my
employees, and writing budget expenses; while enforcing rules and regulations. As I was running a high
volume restaurant, I always had to tolerate interruptions; this could have been from handling customer
complaints or mediating between employees. By delegating responsibility, I was able to plan monthly
meetings, where I was able to introduce the crew to new policies and procedures. There is nothing like
creating a meaningful and challenging workplace. To say the least, I never had a dull day!
At my first position of significance working at The UPS Store as an assistant manager, I decided that I
wanted to pursue a career in management. My boss taught me how to supervise employees, generate
new shipping accounts, and write the monthly PNL. I loved my job so much, that I was the youngest
promoted assistant manager. With the experience that I have gained from various jobs has led to a
proven track record of strong leadership and teambuilding.
