Summary

I'm a passionate and dedicated student with a strong interest in the culinary arts.I am currently studying Cookery in the Cairns College of Business and English and I'm seeking a volunteer/non paid work placement as a kitchen helper to gain hands-on experience and contribute to a professional kitchen environment. I'm eager to learn, reliable, and have a positive attitude. I'm excited to support the kitchen team, assist with food preparation, and ensure a clean and organized workspace. I'm open to work any day of the week (except Tuesdays and Wednesdays as I have classes )to bring my enthusiasm and willingness to learn to any kitchen setting. Thank you for considering me.
