Las Vegas,NV

Summary

Started at Circus Circus at fifteen—midway attendant, hustling games and crowds. Stuck around, moved up to cocktail waitress at twenty-one. Bartended Vegas nightclubs after that, then jumped into food service—fast, funny, always making tables feel like a good time. Three kids later, I still handle chaos like a champ.”
