Skilled culinary professional with extensive food preparation experience.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I'm a dedicated culinary professional with over a decade of experience in food preparation and service. My journey began at the Ritz-Carlton, where I honed my skills in high-quality food production and sanitation practices. I have worked in various fast-paced environments, including restaurants and cafes, where I consistently delivered exceptional dishes while maintaining a clean and organized workspace.
Throughout my career, I've supervised food production, ensured compliance with safety standards, and collaborated closely with management to create a positive dining experience for guests. My commitment to quality and efficiency has allowed me to thrive in roles such as Cook at Ryze and Line Cook at Tony's, where I prepared meals for hundreds of residents and customers daily. I am passionate about culinary arts and continuously seek to improve my skills and knowledge in this dynamic field.
