Summary

As a responsible and hardworking individual, I excelled at my first job working for Steamies Dumplings. I learned how to buss tables, take orders (in person and over the phone), handle DoorDash, prepare food, and work with coworkers of all levels of experience. I was very committed to my job and had the utmost respect for my bosses. I have also had prior commitments, such as dog-sitting my neighbors dog for a week, mowing lawns, and babysitting, all of which were paying jobs. My goal for my future job is to be able to put my best foot forward and utilize my skills as a worker!
