I began work in the Food service industry when I was in 9th grade in our family restaurant, also doing time in fast food after high school. The past two years I have also assisted my mother in her catering business in cooking, doing prep work and customer Service / cashiering. I enjoy working in food service and believe my experience and personality are a good fit for any food service type of employment.
