Summary

Hello, my name is Jacques Solomon Benazra. I am a 21 year old Photographer attending the Fashion institute of technology for photography. Ever since I have been able to get a job I have been working in the restaurant industry. I’ve worked nearly every role in a restaurant, including server, busser, bartender, chef, runner, and dishwasher. I am extremely comfortable working in any restaurant from casual to high end. I love working with people and helping customers have the best experience it can be. Outside the restaurant I am a very passionate photographer and a good friend. I’m always eager to learn and grow. Thanks for taking the time to consider my resume.
