Kayleigh Samson
HOUSTON,Texas
Summary
Friendly Barista with a passion for coffee. Solid experience processing payments, handling food and meeting customer demands with diligent and well-organized mentality. Certified in safe food handling. Started the career path as a barista both very introverted and shy. Although arguably still both of those things, being a barista for the past 4 years has allowed room for much self-growth as well as many valuable interactions and memories with both customers and coworkers alike.
