Summary

I love challenging myself with new tasks, and realize while I may be new to an official restaurant setting, I feel my drive to learn and listen and obtain new tasks will suit me well. I hope for a job which will teach me different useful skills which I can carry forward, and also present the opportunity to try out new things and life experiences. I hope to provide a hardworking culture to any team I am a part of, along with one of inviting collaboration.
