Customer Service Professional & Community Leader

Littleton, Colorado

Dedicated professional with experience in retail, aquatics, and community service. Passionate about helping others and making a positive impact.

About Me

I'm a dedicated high school graduate from Mullen High School with a strong foundation in customer service, team collaboration, and community involvement. My experience spans retail, aquatic safety, and youth mentorship.

As a Style Consultant at Target, I developed expertise in fast-paced retail environments, inventory management, and delivering exceptional customer experiences. My previous role as a Lifeguard strengthened my ability to remain calm under pressure and prioritize safety.

Beyond work, I'm deeply committed to giving back through volunteering with organizations like Meals on Wheels, Special Olympics, and Food Banks of the Rockies. I'm also the founder and president of the Catholic Charity Ambassadors Club, demonstrating my leadership and passion for service.
