I worked at several locations in the metro area, depending on which store needed help, whether it was food inventory management, hiring, training, what ever the need was, I could help fill that void, and float where the company need was greatest. I also helped open three locations, Wayzata store, Des Moines Iowa and Hudson Wisconsin.

I was the Area Manager for several locations. Strong areas were P&L control, training, scheduling, local store marketing (being the mayor of my neighborhood) I went to the stores that were not profitable and my job was to go in, retrain, hire and get costs for food and labor in line. I would then train a new manager and move on to the next store that needed help or I would be on new store opening team. I helped open the Roseville, Mounds View, Portland And Lake store, Hilltop, Blaine, West St. Paul, and crystal locations.
