Summary
I have developed strong multitasking and teamwork skills in high-paced restaurant environments, and am detail-oriented and efficiency focused. My work experience is a total of three years in semi-casual and full service restaurants. I am looking to expand my skills in other specialties in the industry as I pursue my Associates degree, and hope that I bring effective communication and team collaboration wherever I go.
