ALICIA TORRES
PROFESSIONAL SUMMARY
With over ** years in the service industry, my experience stems from a spectrum of positions held from the back of house to the front—giving me a unique and balanced perspective as well as the ability to quickly adapt to new workplace styles and culture. I take great pride in providing the most stellar customer experience possible no matter the context. My attention to detail allows me to go above and beyond for clients by providing a tailored and empathetic approach to each individual, always considering “the little things” that may seem insignificant to others. If I don’t already have a solution, we’ll figure one out together. I am equally proficient in learning highly efficient, well-organized systems, as well creating my own out of a little (or a lot of) chaos. I thrive on new experiences and believe that with a little creativity, all job skills are transferable—and I’m not afraid of getting my hands dirty (literally or metaphorically) to prove it.
