I am a little woman from a large family. One of nine children I have learned from a very early age to be a team player and efficient in all that I do. I have been trained to be a barista and a waitress and have had a bit of Admin thrown into that mix as well. I have learned to be efficient and work hard with excellence. I am always willing to try something new and give it my best shot!
