What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a hospitality role where I can deliver excellent guest service, strengthen food and beverage operations, train staff, and uphold high standards for quality, hygiene, and efficiency.

I'm currently delivering high-quality food and beverage service at Crowne Plaza Hotel (IHG), preparing cocktails, managing bar service, and resolving guest requests professionally.

I've built hotel dining experience at Karen Country Club and Ole Sereni Hotel, where I handled orders, upsold menu items, made recommendations, and maintained guest satisfaction in busy service environments.

My kitchen background includes cooking at Terry’s Dinner & Grill and leading food preparation at Joe’s Wings Atlanta. As Head Chef, I supervised kitchen staff, managed inventory and menu development, and maintained food quality and safety standards.

I'm passionate about quality service, staff training, operational efficiency, hygiene compliance, and creating excellent guest experiences.
