Work History

Lead Server

Tilted Cafe
Hiawassee, GA
08.2022 - 11.2023
  • As a lead server I was able to achieve great success in social skills, leadership skills, and time management skills.
  • I learned to work under stress and manage messy situations while keeping up with my job as a leader.
  • I achieved a pay raise and a promotion in my time spent with this company and learned many new skills helpful to my serving and managing experience.

Host

Pelican Pete’s
Gainesville, GA
04.2019 - 08.2022
  • I gained great communication skills when under pressure. This was a very busy restaurant which made high stress levels for the staff and we had to learn how to work and communicate while dealing with the crowd.
  • I gained great organization skills. The more experienced hosts job was to run the iPad assigning tables which required tons of thinking while under stress.
  • I learned how to show up. This was my first job where I was on a heavy schedule and this taught me the importance of showing up and allowed me to understand how much our coworkers rely on us.

Kennel Assistant

Bethel Animal Hospital
Gainesville, GA
06.2021 - 01.2022
  • As a kennel assistant my job was to take care of the boarded animals, assist the veterinarian and vet technicians during appointments, and clean, but my boss was open to letting me learn new things. Therefore I gained tons of medical experience, drawing blood, taking x-rays, running tests, and all kinds of great experiences.
  • I achieved great social skills. Working in a mature position like this at a young age required me to act more professional than my age and allowed me to develop more mature communication skills.
  • Developed great time management skills. I was required to take care of the animals in the morning and at night which meant coming at 5:30 in the morning and 7 PM. That required a ton of responsibility at a young age.
