Zachariah Clarke
Penrith,NSW
Summary
I worked as a cook for just over 3 years, working in some of the busiest kitchens in the area. Although due to COVID I missed out on opportunities to become an apprentice, I have always pushed myself to learn as much as I can. I am passionate about my work and have always pushed myself to be independent and self critical, while also working as part of a team.

At panthers I have had many roles, most of my work was at Kelly's Bistro, working with a team serving upwards of 800 people per day. I also contributed ideas to the menu and trained new staff.
On early mornings I would work alone at the breakfast buffet, and doing bulk production jobs. I was also often sent off to other restaurants when they needed help.
