Store Manager

How’d you get your job?

Applied to 7-Eleven through the 100,000 Jobs Mission

What’s the coolest thing about your job?

I wanted to continue to serve my country but I was too young for federal agencies and I felt let down. Then I learned about opportunities at 7-Eleven and applied. I do continue to serve my country, just in a different way.

Best advice for other veterans?

Be prepared when you get out – start looking for a job early. And look at retail. There are opportunities and you can go as far as you want if you are willing to work hard.
