OBJECTIVE Obtain a position as a team-player in a people-oriented organization where
I can maximize my customer service experience in a challenging
environment to achieve organizational goals.
SKILLS & ABILITIES I am a motivated team-player. Over six years in the food and hospitality

adaptive and have a flexible mindset. I face challenges and adversity head-

task I undertake is executed to the highest standard. My greatest sense of
achievement results from working with others to set goals and surpass
them.

PHILOSOPHY My philosophy is that effective communication is at the epicenter of a
successful team’s mission. I am a naturally outgoing and perceptive person
and these attributes have been critical in crafting my skills as a
salesperson. By being able to clearly convey information and actively
analyze ideas and communication from people I interact with, I create a
positive experience for my customers and a professional, efficient working
relationship with my colleagues. At the end of the day, I reflect on the
events that occurred and actively think of ways to improve them. I am
never satisfied with mediocrity because I always know that there is room
to improve. While livingthis philosophy, I also endeavor to expound it
upon my professional partners in order to uplift the team as a whole.
