Summary

I am detail oriented and focus on the details and experience. I thrived as a Restaurant Hostess at Darden Restaurants, Olive Garden, where I managed high-pressure situations and multitasked effectively. My strong customer service skills and ability to quickly resolve guest concerns led to an improvement in guest experience. Working in a school developed conflict resolution skills and created high management skills with lesson plans and active teaching. Skilled in both problem-solving and guest management, I thrive in dynamic environments.
