Summary
Adept at food preparation and presentation, I excelled at Lola's Kitchen & Tequila by enhancing dining experiences through meticulous attention to detail and strong multitasking abilities. Leveraging skills in sanitation practices and customer service, I consistently delivered high-quality service, even during peak hours, and played a key role in training new staff.
Personable and disciplined with strong sense of teamwork and efficiency. Knowledge of food safety regulations and knife skills, combined with ability to quickly learn new recipes and techniques. Committed to maintaining high standards in food preparation and contributing to positive kitchen environment.
Looking to apply the skills I learned in these roles in an active skill building role outside the food industry.
