Summary

Driven by a strong work ethic and exceptional customer service skills, I enhanced guest satisfaction and fostered loyalty at Teuchisoba Fujiya. As a bilingual communicator, I bridged language gaps, contributing to a positive dining and learning environment for both the chef and the guests. My approach led to improved outcomes for English learners and repeat business in hospitality, showcasing my ability to meet diverse client needs. I am still young with lots of energy, and I always love to meet and interact with new people.

Love to do workout everyday, reading, and learning new things

I do my daily workout using a training app every morning before I shower, and also I try to read at least 30 minutes to build a good habit. I am keen to acquire new knowledge from broad fields whether it is about animal cruelty, vegan, marine pollution, or make up!
