What do you remember most about your first day on the job?
Stepping up into the dispensary and having a bird's eye view of the whole store.
What is the best part of working at Sobeys?
I've held a variety of positions at Lawtons and Sobeys retail locations and head office, and I've met people who I admire, and have taught me so much.
What is your proudest moment as a Sobeys employee?
My proudest moment was when my home store in Rothesay, NB, became the No. 1 in-store pharmacy for prescription volume in Atlantic Canada.
What advice would you give to a new Sobeys employee?
Listen and learn all you can from your leaders. The greater variety of people you work with, the more you develop your own skill set.
My Sobeys is...
...a place that gives me the opportunity to do what I love every day!
