Summary

Animal lover that started in the grooming as a groomer assistant after working in the culinary and hospitality industry for 3 years. After some months, my skills and development allowed me to start managing not just the grooming side of business but all the front of house tasks as well in my first place of work. Moved looking to evolve and kept growing my knowledge, not just in grooming related matters but also my efficiency for physical and mental tasks for a business.


I've been working in customer service since i was 10 years old in my family business; the keystone of most of my past, present and future success.
