Summary

I'm a kitchen enthusiast turned hospitality guru with a journey that kicked off right after high school in 2017. From mastering the art of cooking to juggling guest needs as a Head Housekeeper and Receptionist at a buzzing holiday park, I've embraced diverse responsibilities. Then, I moved to Australia where i jumped into management at a fast food restaurant, here, i acquired my Shift supervisor and First Aid certificates as well as Food safety and management skills. I love working in busy workplaces and thrive well under pressure.
