Summary

I am a diligent Cook. I possess excellent skills and am never shaken by pressure or a deadline. Multitasking at any given moment is a casual occurrence and I thrive when I can take charge of these situations. I can demonstrate my proficiency in maintaining a well-stocked, organized and clean kitchen area to maximize productivity. An immensely dedicated team player that is open to learning from my team members as well as sharing my knowledge. My punctual nature and communication skills will embolden my commitment to success. While I might not have any professional experience in Information Technology, I am more than familiar with computers. I can easily put the skills I have accumulated in the Food Service industry to practice in an IT environment. I look forward to proving my dedication to excellence.
