Accomplishments

Holding a formal management title, while gaining important leadership skills. I've been able to take subjects from classes, and actually use those skills in my work to help motivate my employees, and to also use the FIFO method when putting out fresh food products for our customers. It's been so amazing to use the skills that I have learned from class and apply them to my internship!
