What I'm looking for

I'm looking for an opportunity to contribute in a professional kitchen, build on my experience across hot, cold, and pastry sections, and develop my culinary skills while maintaining high food safety and hygiene standards.

I've supported food preparation and cooking at Oku Asian Eatery, Yama Asian Eatery, and Laborie Heritage Wine Estate.

Across hot, cold, and pastry sections, I handle mise en place, ingredient preparation, plating, and cooking while supporting teams during high-volume service periods. I follow standard recipes, HACCP procedures, and hygiene requirements.

I keep workstations clean, organized, and ready throughout service.

I'm a culinary arts graduate with training in food and beverage service, professional chef practice, food safety, health and safety, first aid, and basic fire fighting.
