Through my 34 years at Costco, I feel blessed to have grown up with a company that allowed me to build my career, travel, and work in multiple buildings.

I chose a career with Costco initially because of how highly the public spoke about our company and our benefits. However, what keeps me here are the lifelong relationships, rich company culture, career opportunities, and Costco's care for its employees.
