“Five years ago, I discovered that I had inherited my late father's 'gift of gab' when I made a major life change to switch my career from medical billing and coding to the retail industry.
At that time, I was using my degree working in the medical field, but I was not getting any joy from it. I remember shopping at Lowe’s when a cashier mentioned they were hiring, and I thought, 'why not?' That career decision is when I truly began to discover my passion for helping people. My father, who passed away 13 years ago, had this same passion, and he continues to inspire me every day.
Every award and recognition on my vest remind me that the choice I made five years ago has improved my self-esteem, my lifestyle, and continues to allow me to make my father proud each day I show up to work.” – Kimberly W., Paint Dept. Supervisor #LowesLife
