I have experience working as both a restaurant host and a dock hand, where I developed strong customer service, communication, and multitasking skills. As a host at Drake’s Yoke, I greeted and seated guests, managed reservations and waitlists, and ensured a smooth and welcoming front-of-house experience in a busy environment. I worked closely with servers and kitchen staff to maintain efficient table turnover and deliver high-quality service, even during peak hours. As a dock hand at a marina, I assisted with docking, fueling, and securing boats, while prioritizing safety and attention to detail. I provided support to boaters, maintained clean and organized dock areas, and gained hands-on experience with boat handling and water safety protocols. Across both roles, I was recognized for my strong work ethic, reliability, and ability to stay composed in fast-paced, customer-facing settings.
