EDUCATION Georgia State University. Bachelor of Arts Degree Major Political Science Minor Sociology Grade Ave. 3.0 REFERENCES Furnished upon request To whom it may concern, I have worked for several companies as a district manager and manager. Each company had unique methods for driving the profit and loss metrics as well as enhancing the customer experience. Consequently, I have a good background in operations including analysis of a 30 page statement per store and then creating a business plan that moves the stores forward. I have a talent for visual merchandising that included working with a team to create a prototype for a chain-wide planogram process. I started in retail in a commission-based environment that allowed me develop sales training skills that were utilized by two companies to build a program that was rolled out to the chain. I believe I can adapt to any environment and excel. I have excellent references that speak to my skills. I would love the opportunity to explain how my background could benefit your company.
