Lyndsey Norwood

Head Cake Decorator
Plainwell,MI

Summary

I am a hardworking, dedicated employee. I love decorating cakes and have been using your products and ordering from your company for years. I think I would make an asset to your team because I am familiar with the product you carry, how to design it, how it tastes, I am a good problem solver and someone you can rely on. I have been at the job I am currently with decorating cakes for 8 years and I am just looking to move up and try something new in the cake world. I am educated on the products needed for a good decorator and I have also been in retail for years.
