Summary

Since age 14, I have demonstrated extremely proficient work ethic within food service proving reliability to all my employers. At my first job in which I was originally hired as a table busser, I eventually worked my way up to a point where I was preparing, topping and serving food to customers on top of my already plentiful tasks needed of me throughout the day. I spent close to two years working hard and training new staff at La Ristra until I turned 16, prompting me to find a new job closer to home in order to reduce the rather tedious commute. While seeking out a new job that would best suit my interests, I got hired at Taco Bell where I’ve been employed for the past few months. With the recent opening of the TRU Bowl directly next to my house, my interest was piqued and I decided to apply as an attempt to be a part of this new, exciting and nutritious business. Outside of work I apply myself rigorously within school and my community, I maintain a 3.4 GPA at Mountain View High School and hope to attend Syracuse after I graduate. I am a member of the Mesa Mayor's Youth Committee and Youth and Government; I will be attending Youth Advocacy Day in March and CONA over the summer. Despite my extracurriculars, I have a fairly loose schedule typically allowing me to work 4:00-Close from Monday-Friday and any time I am needed on Saturdays/Sundays. I truly see a future at Tru Bowl and would absolutely love to be given the opportunity to flourish as a team member within the company.
