Summary

I moved to Arizona from downtown Chicago 2 years ago to attend ASU. I have several years of experience in the restaurant and hospitality industry as a server. I am very customer-service oriented and motivated to do a great job. My past employers will confirm that I am very dependable, a hard worker and have a great attitude. In my spare time, I play lots of sports - Volleyball is my favorite! I am also a member of the ASU dance team. I love meeting new people and look forward to connecting with you soon!
