Summary

As a team member I am highly effective at anticipating and accommodating customer needs. Friendly, punctual and an enthusiastic team player. I am an extremely hardworking server who thrives under pressure and goes above and beyond to create unforgettable guest experiences. I have 2 to 3 years experience serving up to a high number of dinner guests from a food stand during a high volume festival to, a casual dining restaurant that is the busiest of it's kind in the state.

I am a focused worker that is successful at multi-tasking and delivering prompt and friendly service to all customers. Maintains a positive attitude and a great sense of humor during peak hours.
