Objective:
I am currently employed part time and work mostly nights so I am seeking daytime employment in
order to continue saving money to further my education and develop my career. Currently open for
full/part time work. Almost all hours and days open.
Professional Summary:
I am very determined, ambitious and a natural “go getter”. I have a great ability to take criticism and
apply it to my work in order to produce better results and my customer service skills are superb. I
have worked in both kitchen and retail. I have been trained in waitressing and prep, also cashier,
dishwashing, bussing, opening & closing, and more. As for my kitchen experience I have worked in
a wide variety of settings and am therefore able to acclimate quickly. Examples of these settings
range from 5 star restaurants to high traffic cafes. I have worked in various states across America
and even within airports thus giving me the skill set to accommodate a vast and diverse customer
base. Lastly, I am consistently both updating and applying my skill set to exceed not only the
customers, but the companies needs.
