Ava Hough
Santa Barbara,CA
Summary
I am a high school senior with experience working in three restaurants since my sophomore year, with a history of delivering excellent customer service in busy retail settings, and strong client engagement skills to promote seamless store operations. I am eager to serve a different age group after seeing my mother's work with Sylvia Cambers as a caretaker and the meaningful connections she has formed. I also hope to use this position to save for college.
