In 2020 and 2021 I helped lead our store break the company world record for number of holiday gift cards sold two years in a row, meeting goals corporate management deemed impossible, and earning an extra $22,000 and $30,000 for the company in 34 days and 35 days respectively. In 2021 I broke the company wide world record for number of holiday gift cards sold by an individual in one holiday season. Breaking the previous record of ~250 set the previous year, I sold 403 in 35 days: earning an extra $8,060 for the company, and subsequently receiving a $600 bonus on my paycheck and a promotion offer to Store Manager. Informally known as the ‘Head Supervisor’ of our flagship store, I led and trained employees and supervisors alike, developed new processes to improve customer experience, helped take care of customers, and set and held high standards while maintaining a positive work environment.

Worked in a team production environment to prepare a specified amount of urine samples for manual retesting in pre-employment drug test and medical drug test scenarios. Employee task list changed daily. I also personally handled samples from the Department of Transportation and personally handled and prepared various high profile samples for retesting. These high profile clients include the Nuclear Regulatory Commission as well as other private clients. At age 18 I achieved an employee score of 89/100 for my first six-month assessment. Six months later I achieved a 94/100 on my second and final assessment before my departure. I also occasionally worked in the Evidence department and helped with sample storage and disposal. In addition, in the midst of a company-wide computer shutdown due to a Ransomware attack, I trained my colleagues to complete evidence department work while the problem was dealt with, saving the company thousands of dollars in labor over the course of several days.
