In my multifaceted internship with Speedway, I was tasked with the growth and development of our staff, our stores, and our sales. I would actively look for areas of improvements and worked with staff members to streamline and improve our delivery of customer service and products. In addition, my time spent with various officers of the organization gave me a broader perspective into the operations of the stores and all the resources needed to make the stores successful.
