Summary

Early-career line cook with hands-on experience preparing pizzas, entrees, and multiple orders during busy service. Strong focus on quality, food safety, and attention to detail. Known for consistent recipe standards, clean work areas, and clear team communication. I've been a stay at home dad for the past 5 years, cooking every day. Now that my kids are old enough to take the school bus and childcare arrangements are made for after school, I am able to work again. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to join your kitchen.
