Summary
I have mostly worked in customer service and the food industry, but I am very willing to learning more. Through working in restaurants, I have learned how to keep calm and composed in difficult situations, handling a lot of tension calmly, serving food safely and efficiently. I would love to expand my skill set, as I am a senior in high school and have much time ahead of me to learn more.
