Summary
I have worked in two different kitchens over the course of 4 years, however; I struggle with customer service based work as I struggle with social anxiety, I'm looking for something where I can have new experience and develop new skills in different environments based on my interests and qualifications.
I'm a dedicated professional with expertise in maintaining clean and efficient workspaces, proficient in the use of cleaning chemicals and commercial dishwashers. I demonstrate strong multitasking abilities and a commitment to health and safety standards and have skills in equipment cleaning, recycling procedures, and efficiency improvement, with a goal to enhance operational productivity.
