A junior runner/waiter who is seeking new opportunities to contribute to amazing restaurants across Auckland. Detail-orientated eyes that enable a tidy arrangement of utensils, and dishes. A quick learner with a passion for the hospitality industry, I can adapt well to new processes and environments and not hesitate to do new challenging tasks. Committed to professionalism and discipline, I always try to work cooperatively and hold responsibility to maintain and uphold the restaurant's quality.
