Summary

I bring strong teamwork and honesty to all environments from my work as a short order cook, to my studies where creativity and collaboration are keys to success, to my passions of music and theatre where hard work and commitment are integral to performance.


I have excellent verbal and written communicate skills, a natural curiosity about people and ideas, a strong sense of responsibility and the ability to learn quickly in all situations.
