Summary

Dynamic and driven with a proven track record at The Colony Café, I excel in customer service and adapting to sudden changes within the hospitality environment. Milking and other livestock handling has forced me to remain calm in high-pressure situations as well as embedding within me a strong environmentalism. Skilled in high quality service and sustainability oriented thinking, my outgoing personality fosters healthy success in fast-paced environments.
