With over six years of experience in the restaurant industry, I have developed a passion for creating visually appealing and delicious dishes while working efficiently in fast-paced environments. My time as a line cook has sharpened my communication skills, allowing me to collaborate effectively with my team and maintain a clean, organized workspace. I value strong relationships and strive to create a positive, engaging atmosphere wherever I work.
My responsibilities included setting up the line, stocking inventory, and maintaining sanitation standards. I ensured the preparation station and kitchen were properly stocked and organized, reported directly to the Kitchen Manager, followed instructions and recipes, and ensured all kitchen and food storage areas met health and safety regulations
I worked on the line during busy rushes, maintaining focus and composure under pressure. Ensuring food was presented well and prepared accurately was a top priority. I collaborated with colleagues respectfully and worked efficiently as part of a team. Daily expectations included preparing stations for smooth operations and adhering to punctuality and uniform standards
My responsibilities included preparing and cutting ingredients ahead of high-volume periods, ensuring my station was clean, organized, and ready for the rush. I also paid close attention to the chef's instructions, which helped me improve my skills. During my time here, I built strong relationships with colleagues and gained an intermediate level of Spanish
I held multiple roles, both front-of-house (FOH) and back-of-house (BOH). As a busser and host, I welcomed guests, ensuring they felt comfortable and well-accommodated while guiding them to their seats. Additionally, I gained experience as a dishwasher and prep cook, supporting kitchen operations and I worked on the line as a grill cook
In my free time I like to spend time going to the gym, hanging out with friends and family, studying psychology, reading, and writing.
