Summary
ive allways been a hard worker and a practical person so i knew school wasnt for me so i got a job as soon as i could and it just so happend to be a potwash. Then i became a chef out of luck when we didnt have enough staff. i allways perform best in the deep end i allways have and to show this i went to the hand and flower for a week stage and came back with a job offer having no michelein experience. im ver good at dealing with stress and especially when it comes to managing a team. im good at identifying peoples rolls and attitudes and how they work best and in what conditions or sections. ive allways had a passion and love for cooking through everything and i believe thats proved through what i put on a plate
