Summary

I am a recent graduate with a double major in Operations and Supply Chain Management, and Marketing, currently working as a sushi maker in a fast-paced kitchen team. I have hands-on experience in customer service, food preparation, and student supervision, having worked in roles such as KFC crew member, Papa John’s front-of-house staff, and after-school tutor. Through these roles, I’ve developed strong attention to detail, reliability, and the ability to follow procedures accurately. I’m hoping to find a role that relates to my university studies in supply chain and logistics, where I can apply what I’ve learned, and do something meaningful.
