Basalt,CO
Summary
- I am a loyal employee and have imbedded myself into every work opportunity I have come across. I try my best to be positive each day I come into work, and create an upbeat work environment. I enjoy fast pase work which is why I have stuck within the restaurant business for much of my life.
- Leadership Skills are something I have recently found myself very interested in. I lead my colleges Outdoor Orientation Backpacking trip this summer and it has inspired me to use my leadership skills more. I deeply enjoy connecting, educating, and supporting those around me! Looking for any experiences!
- Throughout high school I struggled to find volunteer options, however during COVID I volunteered for Pitkin Counties senior center and handed out/delivered food to seniors affected by COVID.
