Experienced hospitality professional with over 23 years in the restaurant and customer service industry. Skilled in delivering exceptional dining experiences through keen attention to detail and effective social interaction. Background in fine dining and wine knowledge, gained through years of supporting my mother's catering business. I believe my years in the industry have given me a unique ability to read a table and the type of dining experience they are looking for. I am eager to contribute to the team at The Benbow Inn.
