At Fins Restaurant in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, I was a hostess and friendly face that set the tone for a memorable dining experience. As guests step through the door, those greeted with my warm smile and welcoming demeanor that reflected the coastal charm of the restaurant. The hostess embodies the laid- back yet vibrant spirit of the beach community, making everyone feel right at home.

In this bustling seaside eatery, the hostess expertly manages the flow of diners, skillfully balancing reservations and walk- in guests with ease. With an extensive knowledge of the menu and the restaurant's offerings, I was always ready to provide recommendations, share the day's specials, and accommodate any special requests. During peak hours, I remained calm and composed, efficiently handling waitlists and communicating with the kitchen and waitstaff to ensure that the dining experience ran smoothly. Beyond my logistical duties at Fins, I took pride in representing the local community, often sharing insider tips about nearby attractions and events. I embodied the essence of Rehoboth Beach, making every guest feel like part of the family and leaving them eager to return for another delicious meal. Whether it's a local regular or a first-time visitor, I ensured that everyone felt welcome and appreciated.

I modeled clothing and handbags at various photoshoot locations. I worked for a small business owner in Chevy Chase, Maryland. The photos are showcased on all of their social media platforms.

As a former Salon Receptionist at Salon Jean, I was tasked with overseeing the front desk operations, booking and confirming appointments, handling transactions, and providing a warm welcome to clients.
