Summary
Reliable and customer-focused professional with 20+ years of experience sucessfully owning and operating barbershops. SKilled in time management, communication, problem-solving, and providing excellent service in fast-paced environments. Proven ability to manage schedules, handle daily operations independently, and build strong relationships with customers. I am seeking to transition into a delivery driver role where strong work ethic, dependability, and attention to detail can contribute to efficient and timely deliveries.
