Pace
06.2023 - 07.2024

As a server at a high-end restaurant, I embodied a blend of professionalism, charm, and attentiveness that enhances each guest's dining experience.

My keen observational skills allow me to anticipate guests' needs, ensuring that their glasses are never empty and that every course is served with impeccable timing. I engaged patrons in a warm, personable manner, making them feel valued and appreciated. Whether I was skillfully balancing trays with beautifully plated entrées or deftly navigating special requests and dietary restrictions, My commitment to excellence and getting the job done shines through.

In a bustling environment I remained poised and composed, managing multiple tables while maintaining a keen awareness of the atmosphere around me. I can handle any challenges with grace, whether it's addressing a guest’s concern or coordinating with the kitchen staff to ensure flawless service.
