Summary
Driven by a strong work ethic and exceptional stress tolerance, I excelled at Moth Coffeehouse by enhancing kitchen efficiency and maintaining high standards of cleanliness, even under pressure. My experience also spans providing compassionate care for special needs individuals and managing high-volume transactions at Six Flags. These skills and my decision-making skills were sharpened and maintained through my time as President of an ever-growing college club with the focus of providing a safe space and representation for queer and trans students on campus.
