CHRISTIANE HARRIS SAMIU
Moerewa,NTL
Summary
Hardworking and reliable hospitality worker with experience at Pizza Shack and Alfresco , as a bar tender and waitress as well as Aloha Motel as a housekeeper. I’m confident working with customers, and staying organised during busy periods. I work well as part of a team, keep a high standard of cleanliness, and have experience helping train new staff. I’m friendly, quick to learn, and always willing to help where needed. I haven’t worked since 2021 due to having kids within those years. I still would consider myself being fully friendly and quick to learn. However, if I’m being completely honest, motherhood has changed me in many ways. I am looking for a part time job to see how I go as I have health conditions that I also have to consider (can discuss in person). But I am a good worker who shows up on time, and gets the job done. I am honest, respectful and take pride in all work that I do.
