Additional Information
I have 18 years of experience in the customer service/hospitality/restaurant business and love working in that type of environment. I am also very good at dealing with customers in any circumstance and making them feel comfortable and satisfied after dealing with me. I've had experience working independently and in groups, either way, I'm a very dedicated worker. I take all work as serious as possible while making it easy for people to work with or under me.
