I'm a dedicated yet fun-loving professional with over 10 years experience at Trader Joe's, excelling in customer service and team collaboration. I've been an essential part of my team through adaptability and attention to our store and customer needs. I enjoy merchandising and training new hires, but get the most satisfaction out of making someone's day, even in the smallest way, whether it be a smile, a small compliment, or taking a moment to hear what they're going through. I'm skilled in cash handling and transactional matters, and care very much for the people I work with.
