Summary
Driven by a results-focused approach, I excel in fast-paced environments, evident from my time at J. Alexander’s where I enhanced customer satisfaction through exceptional service, multitasking abilities, and becoming one of the main trainers. Fluent in English and Portuguese, my strong teamwork, and problem-solving skills contribute to achieving and exceeding performance goals. Lived in Brazil for 6 years and am well traveled, so I have a big worldview where I am able to relate to people of all different walks of life.
