Summary
Current university student with experience as a waitress and a painting teacher. I’m currently looking for an opportunity to work as much as possible, as I have a flexible schedule.
From my experience as a waitress, I have a strong understanding of customer service, food preparation, and general cleaning. As a painting teacher, I have organizational and instructional skills necessary to communicate with diverse groups, and lead tasks. I’m a highly motivated employee with the desire to take on new challenges, and I also possess a strong work ethic, adaptability, and adeptness at working effectively unsupervised, while quickly mastering new skills.
