Summary

After dedicating seven years to the service industry, I am now ready to pursue my dream career. For five years, I passionately worked as a line cook. Along the way, I quickly advanced my career, gaining experience in various restaurants and positions. Early on, I even had the opportunity to build and manage a kitchen for a cafe, where I created their breakfast and lunch menu and onboarded a kitchen staff. To increase my income, I also explored roles in the front of house, such as barbacking and barista-ing. Currently, while studying, I am actively seeking a part-time during the academic seasons and a full-time summer job and I am open to new opportunities. I am a dependable service worker successful providing fast, high-quality customer service to guests in restaurant settings. I have expertise in food service (including expo), sanitation, personnel development, team collaboration and resolving issues with customers, waitstaff and restaurant management.
