Summary
Collaborative culinary professional with 11 years of experience in kitchen operations. Proven ability to train staff, create seasonal menus, and maintain a calm demeanor under pressure. Eager to contribute to a dynamic kitchen environment.
- Eager to find another field to grow with the company while being compensated for my efforts. There was a financial cap where i worked and being paid a little over minium wage wasn't ideal. So i got my GED to see what my other options were.
