Summary

I am a reliable and enthusiastic individual with strong customer service and communication skills, developed through varied experience in hospitality, education, and childcare. I’ve built a strong ability to stay organised, calm under pressure, and attentive to people’s needs by managing busy shifts as a waitress and bartender, delivering engaging tours, and tutoring students in core subjects. I take pride in being approachable, quick to learn, and a supportive team player. I offer a strong work ethic, adaptability, and enthusiasm for delivering great service. I’m keen to grow within the hospitality industry, starting with a barista role where I can combine my interpersonal skills and interest in coffee culture.
