What I'm looking for

I seek hands-on roles in food technology or hospitality where I can apply cooking skills, customer service, and creativity while growing technically and contributing to a collaborative team.

I am a hardworking and proactive food technologist with a Bachelor of Science in Industrial Technology, majoring in Food Trades. I bring hands-on experience in cooking, barista and waitstaff roles, housekeeping, and customer service in a pharmacy, and I consistently approach work with a positive attitude and a willingness to learn.

During my studies I served as SSG Officer and P.I.O., made the Dean's List, and won a photography contest, demonstrating leadership, academic achievement, and creative skill. My workplace experience at resorts and a pharmacy developed my practical food preparation skills, customer-facing service, and operational reliability.

I enjoy creative pursuits like photography, videography, calligraphy, and crafts, which enrich my attention to detail and presentation in food and customer service. I am motivated to grow in food technology, hospitality, and roles that value teamwork, technical skill, and continuous learning.

I am currently working as a Customer Service at a Community Pharmacy. Dispensing medication and giving basic medication counselling is my work daily.
