Summary
Friendly, detail-oriented and fast-learning student currently on a gap year. I have years of experience in customer-facing roles, including preparing and serving drinks at busy events, and love to work in a dynamic team to ensure customer satisfaction. Confident handling queues, maintaining hygiene standards, and working efficiently in fast-paced environments.
I am looking to join a coffee shop or café where I can bring energy, consistency, and excellent service while continuing to expand my skill set.
