Summary

I am a versatile worker, proficient in the hospitality industry with knowledge in bartending and as front of house staff with over 4 years of experience, including working upscale events and functions such as weddings and funerals. I am a quick learner with ability to remain calm under pressure and communicate clearly due to previous experience in teaching and have a keen awareness of keeping a clean, safe and stocked work area and handling cash and card transactions.
