Throughout my 10 years of retail management experience, I have continually developed and challenged myself. During my time with GameStop, I have worked my way up from a part time game advisor to my previous position as a District Leader, due to leading my teams in top performance, training and development, creating solutions, and focusing on the guest experience. I am passionate and dedicated to continue developing myself to be an influential leader. I have high learning agility, strong emotional intelligence, and I am able to quickly adapt to change. The people that have worked for me are engaged and challenged by me because of the focus I place on the development of their business acumen. I am organized, an excellent communicator, and have very high standards in integrity and execution. Below are some of the accomplishments I have had over the last several years with GameStop, as a District Leader.
