Summary
I have experience as a supervisor and manager, with people skills that help teammates not become burnt out or feel unappreciated while maintaining company values and goals. I've had to work through tight deadlines and frustrated guests, and I've worked through the slow seasons when the days drag on. Through my experience, I've seen the simplicity of companies and the functioning of life as a whole summed down to this, "People are people." Once you've helped, your company has succeeded.
From the cashier at a Dairy Queen, to the manager of a team of ten at a large youtube company, I've seen and experienced a lot to know how people operate, what they thrive on and what drives them. Connection.
