Meet Monica! Monica is the Senior Area Manager of Security and will celebrate her 3 year anniversary with the Goodwill Columbus team this May!
Monica joined Goodwill Columbus when she was searching for something stable. Her previous employment was in loss prevention, where she was a Site Supervisor, but the job had become too much of a safety hazard.
Because of her past experience, Monica was initially offered an Assistant Area Manager position at Goodwill and has never looked back! Within 6 months, she was promoted to Area Manager, and a few months later after showcasing her skills, Monica was promoted to her current position of Sr. Area Manager!
In her current role, Monica oversees approximately 50 officers at about 10 State of Ohio security buildings – 24/7, “my phone is always on for my officers, day and night!” said Monica.
When asked her favorite part of the job, Monica stated, “honestly, I love the responsibility of leading others to grow and live up to their potential.”
In 2026, Monica is looking forward to working toward her goal of becoming General Manager. She was recently informed that she has only three more steps to complete this goal!
“Being at Goodwill has been amazing,” Monica said, “I enjoy everyone and love my teams, I look forward to growing and retiring from Goodwill.”
Fantastic job, Monica and good luck!
