Summary
I’m outgoing and curious, with a genuine interest in learning about different cultures. I love trying new foods and have a passion for cooking, which allows me to express creativity and connect with others. Professionally, I’ve gained valuable experience working as a waiter and bartender at Calzone Essential in Hemel Hempstead, where I honed my customer service skills and handled cash transactions efficiently in a fast-paced environment. Additionally, I worked as a support worker with young people aged 16 to 18, supporting them in daily activities and helping them build confidence and life skills. I’m organized, reliable, and enjoy building positive relationships with people from diverse backgrounds.
