LinkedIn Profile
I have managed in the retail/food industry for 20 years; the last 13 as a General Manager for Milo’s Hamburgers. As a result of my commitment and work ethic I was assigned the additional duty of training all new managers (I am a certified manager trainer – CMT) for their role as General Manager in various locations throughout Alabama. The Calera location that I manage has received recognition for being the most successful store based on sales, customer service and efficiencies.
