I began working for Menards in La Crosse as a cashier in high school. When I moved to Eau Claire for college in 2003, I transferred to the Eau Claire East store. During my years in college I worked at both the Eau Claire East and West stores as cashier and later as Delivery Coordinator. After graduating in May of 2007, I worked as a secretary in the Computer Hardware Support Office at Menards General Office. I resigned when I decided to go back to school to earn a degree in Mass Communication-Public Relations.
