What I'm looking for

I'm looking to transition into the iGaming sector, bringing customer service, operational leadership, structured problem-solving, and experience working effectively in fast-paced environments.

At Café Cuba in Msida, I supervise a full kitchen team, organize shift schedules, manage stock, and maintain HACCP health, safety, and quality standards.

I've trained six pizzaiolos to independent performance and coordinate front- and back-of-house teams to keep service running smoothly during peak volume. Previously at PI Pizzas in Dublin, I supported the launch of a new restaurant venue and handled customer service, POS, cash handling, and order processing.

My experience across hospitality, pharmacy, and customer-facing roles in Malta, Ireland, and Brazil has made me organized, adaptable, and focused on resolving customer needs under pressure. I'm transitioning into iGaming with a foundation in software engineering studies, logical reasoning, and MS Office reporting.
