What I'm looking for

I seek a role where I can apply nutrition-focused meal planning, food-safety leadership, inventory management, and supervisory skills to support community health and implement cost-saving, culturally sensitive programs.

I am a dedicated food service professional with over five years of experience in meal preparation, nutrition, and dietary support across healthcare and community settings.

I consistently manage food inventory, implement cost-effective meal plans, and enforce food-safety standards, holding a current Food Handler Certification (Aug 2024–Aug 2028) and TABC certification.

In operational roles I have implemented cost-saving measures, maintained 100% accuracy in cooking times, developed allergen-aware and diet-friendly recipes, and supported catering events for diverse populations.

I bring strong leadership, communication, and supervisory skills, backed by culinary and business education, and I am passionate about improving community wellness through compassionate, organized food service.
