Summary
I am a reliable and proactive worker with experience in customer-facing jobs like waiting tables, helping in a university cafeteria, and working as a student monitor. I communicate well and pay close attention to detail, which helps me handle busy situations and solve customer problems quickly. Working in food service has taught me how to explain menu options clearly, recommend products, and keep guests happy, whether I am working alone or with a team.
In addition to my service background, I am organized and manage my time well. I am good at mental math and handling inventory. As a monitor and cafeteria worker, I showed I can be counted on and learn new skills quickly, like using POS systems or handling logistics. I always aim to create a friendly environment for customers and am ready to adapt to any retail or cafe setting.
