Summary

I am a detail-oriented professional with a background in the hospitality industry, dedicated to providing the highest quality customer service. I excel in high-pressure environments while maintaining a calm demeanor. I prioritize safety by carefully adhering to food handling regulations and procedures. Having always been passionate about the food industry, I moved to New Zealand over a year ago to join my family. I am currently seeking a part-time position that allows me to work with people while maintaining a balanced lifestyle with my children and grandchildren who live in East Auckland.
