As a Champion Staff Member, I was trained in Customer Service by a Disney Corporation representative. For two of the three years, I was responsible for greeting and directing every arrival, making me the first impression and face of Champion. My job as the station manager was to be a leader, mentor, and coach to a diverse group. By delivering motivational speeches, organizing daily activities, and coordinating with other staff members, I was able to diversify my organizational and administrative skills. A secondary position I held was the Christian Athlete seminar coordinator.
