Summary

I’m a friendly and reliable person with a real passion for great customer service and making quality coffees. I’ve worked at Donut King in Lilydale Marketplace for the past three years, where I’ve learned how to stay organised and handle busy shifts with a positive attitude. I enjoy working in a team and am always happy to help out wherever needed to keep things running smoothly and make sure customers have the best experience.
