Floor Set Associate
Jan 2017 - Present (7 years 9 months)
As a floor set associate I am responsible for dismantling and installing new marketing materials and products. I must organize all product that is being removed and placing new product on the shelves. Corporate provides a floor set up instructions and sometimes changing the height of wall shelves and racks is necessary. It is important to follow these instructions down to the smallest details. When complete window displays I have to dress bust forms, change light box graphics, marketing materials, clean the windows and angle the track lighting to hit the display correctly.
I have recently started at this company and am excited for a new challenge along my journey. My arms are open to new tasks and responsibilities they hand to me. Only being at the company for a month, I have already been able to help with inventory. This consisted of counting, scanning and organizing items for biannual corporate inventory.

Starting in the CAD department at beMatrix USA I worked with Inventor to provide clients with setup instructions and job quotes of client requests. Since beMatrix is a systems company I use the standard and sometimes custom frame sizes to satisfy the customers needs. As the company continued to grow, I shifted in the marketing department of the company.
As a marketing specialist some of my responsibilities include designing, creating, and delivering marketing elements to support the growth and expansion of company products and services.

Personal Care Attendent
All About Caring
Rush City, MN
May 2013 - Dec 2013 (7 months)
I was a PCA for a 6 year old girl name Sydney. She needed help with her behavior so I picked her up everyday after school and took her home. We would work on her homework, read books, and I would feed her dinner. If there was free time we would play outside, or do crafts that work on her motor skills. This job took a lot of patience because as most things come easy to other people they do not with her. This really worked my creativity because I had to think of ways to get the simplest tasks to make sense.

At Maytag there are two businesses. The laundry side, and the tanning side. The laundry did not take much training, the duties contained of washing, folding, and sometimes ironing. The tanning side consisted of a lot of information and hours of training. You must be able to explain everything to customers, and make sure they are safe and do not burn themselves. At the end of every shift you must clean the whole business so it is ready for the next day, lock the doors, and set the alarm.
