Mv Story

I’ve worked in nearly every position in restaurants and bars. I’m experienced, organized, upbeat, and great with customers. I provide excellent service to every customer.

Restaurant Experience

September 2016-June 2017

Front End Manager

Green Roots Café

Portland State University Portland, Oregon

1825 SW Broadway; Portland, Oregon, 97201

I served as the first front-of-house manager of this on-campus, student-run cafe. I was an integral part of the planning team, along with a kitchen and business manager, under the supervision of PSU staff. Hired and fired, set schedules, served customers with joy. It was one of my great challenges in helping to bring this cafe to life under the supervision of an often-skeptical University management.

Summer 2003-Fall 2009

Manager

Lompoc Hedge House

3412 S.E. Division Street

Portland, OR 97214

I served as the first front-of-the-house manager for this neighborhood brewpub and restaurant in Southeast Portland. I hired and fired, wrote schedules, and set a welcoming atmosphere to customers and staff. Among the challenges was that our indoor seating area was small and complemented by large outdoor seating areas, both covered and open, which required expanding and contracting the serving staff to meet seasonal demands.

Spring 1999-Summer 2003

Lead Bartender/Manager

New Old Lompoc Brewpub

1616 NW 23rd Avenue

Portland, Oregon 97232

I was the first staff member of this iconic Northwest Portland brewpub. I served customers with joy and solid service skills. I eventually became manager, which meant I hired and fired, set schedules, and created a great atmosphere for customers and staff members. I also created a Sunday-morning bluegrass jam, which filled our outdoor seating area during a time in which we otherwise were slow.

1997-2003

Bartender

McMenamins Crystal Ballroom

1332 W. Burnside Street Portland, Oregon 97209

I was among the first staff members of this historic music venue. Even after all these years, I run into customers who remember me from that time. This busy concert hall often meant serving constantly during evening shows. Part of my job was working at a portable bar for major events. This involved setting up the bars and tearing down the bars themselves.

Grocery Experience

Summer 2021-Spring 2022

Cashier

New Seasons Market Hawthorne

4304 SE Hawthorne Blvd.

Portland, Oregon 97214

I was a fast, friendly and accurate cashier, providing great, joyous service to all my customers.

Other Experience

In my earlier years, I have been a reporter on local newspapers, a writer and editor for car racing magazines, and at car racing facilities.
