Summary

I have found my love for hospitality when i was just 14 years old. Through out my years working in this industry, i have gave my all to learn, grow and develop into the person i am today. I have fallen inlove with learning about coffee and happy to say that i have had the trick of approval with my coffees at my current workplace. I do not know coffee art but more than happy to train to complete these skills.

I adore me time which includes walking into a coffee shop and enjoying my first slip of coffee with the morning sunrise. When i am not working you will find me in nature hiking, chasing waterfalls and climbing mountains. I adore Tasmania so much which has made me into the person i am today. I have a huge passion for mental health and always wanting to learn more ways to help others and make them smile more.

I would love to bring my bubbly personality into your workplace and make your customers laugh and smile as well. I am a go getting and like to set goals for myself and achieve them.


I am happy to provide two more references that have seen me grow through my years of work.
