Summary

I have been in Hospitality since Leaving School and going into full time study. Skilled in all aspects of the Hospitality industry having worked in one of Auckland's top companies for hospitality.


Despite currently pursuing further studies, I'm eager to channel my expertise into part-time work that not only supplements my income but also adds value an existing hospitality team.


With a journey from Glassy to Stock Manger, and everything in between, my experience will help me fill in where required with little to no training.
