What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a collaborative, customer-facing role where communication, and hospitality skills while learning and growing with my team.

I’m a Studio Art student with an interest in digital art/game aesthetics and a consistent record of academic effort, including dean’s list recognition. I bring a detail-oriented mindset, clean-workspace habits, and the ability to learn quickly in fast-moving environments.

In my current role as a Team Member, I collaborate with colleagues to meet project goals, actively listen to others’ ideas and concerns, and adapt quickly to changing priorities. I focus on delivering high-quality results while maintaining a supportive team dynamic.

I’ve also built hands-on experience in customer-facing settings, including as a Barista and as a Student Library Assistant. From preparing coffee and handling POS/cash transactions to assisting patrons with inquiries and supporting programs and events, I enjoy guest services, teamwork, and dependable operations.
