Summary
I am a conscientious, outgoing, and reliable team member with years of experience in service, catering, and high-expectation environments. I've worked a variety of positions from hosting to serving and bartending. I love working with and around people and food and am seeking to expand that journey here in Chicago. references

Experience
The Koi Tacoma, WA
Server and Hostess 05/2023 - 10/2024
Serving at The Koi I maintained high-quality standards for dining and good relationships with coworkers and regulars at one of Tacoma/Seattle's best Japanese restaurants. I was familiar with the finer details of our frequently changing menu, and selection of fish, wines, and spirits. I do very well with curating an enjoyable experience for guests even in the high volume and fast-paced environment of the Koi.
