West Bend,WI

Summary

I am a 38 year old, active, mother of 2 young boys, looking for something part time on the weekends to make a little extra savings money and get back to a bit of the other kind of work that I love, service industry. I am already employed full time in a career that I adore, though my schedule on the weekends has opened up and I'm looking to enhance it with more of what I have passion for. I enjoy both intimate and fast paced environments, enhancing people's dining or event experience, and helping guests leave with a positive experience of both quality and care.
