Summary

I am an enthusiastic and professional 19-year-old seeking full-time/part-time work. Although I have not had much official experience, I am keen to grow my knowledge and prove that I am a team player who will dedicate myself to my work. I am studying commercial cookery at William Angliss Institute. However, I am currently taking some time off to work more hours. Therefore, my hours are very flexible and I am available a lot!
