Bree Brooks
Summary
My name is Bree, I’m 30 years young, I have been in hospitality since turning 18! I
absolutely love everything about hospitality! The one thing I love most about this
career is the customer side of it! I love getting to know each and every face that
walks in my venue! I’m an outgoing bubbly girl! Very welcoming face! I have a
beautiful 7 year old boy Koby, but I have never let raising my son affect my work! We just moved to Bunbury from NSW and I’m looking for a new career that is between school hours.
I put so much time, passion and love into my all my previous jobs! I loved running the last venue I was at, one of my strengths is leadership and managing venues. I started out as a receptionist at the real estate in NSW and also loved it! It was so different to hospitality, but so rewarding and fun! I am great with people face to face, so I will be looking for a new career in hospitality or reception! Or willing to try something new!
