Volunteer Experience
Delaware North, Non-Profit Volunteer, San Diego, CA, 2018-05, 2019-11, As a non-profit volunteer, I worked many baseball games and concerts at Petco Park. I was asked to work as both as a cashier and food expeditor. As a cashier, I provided exceptional customer service and used my organizational skills. As a food expeditor, it was my job to retrieve food from the back to bring to the customers while also up keeping the work environment and keeping it clean. I am a team player and always stayed well after the events were over to entirely clean work stations and stock for the next event.
