I have a lot of food industry experience but I also ran my own business for 5 years so I am pretty well rounded in the business/owner side just as much as the restaurant side. I am a very fast learner. I graduated college with my Bachelors and took many different classes in all different subjects so I would be prepared and have a little bit of knowledge on everything, I have so much to learn still, you can never know too much. I have a lot of life and worldly experience and excited to always keep learning. I understand that there is usually a specific criteria that is looked for in specific jobs but as I said I am a very fast learner and however my employer wants the job done it will be completed as such in a quick and detailed manner. Thank You
