Summary

With a diverse base of experience in the restaurant industry built over the last 22years, I have developed a great appreciation of food preparation and customer service. A strong believer in teamwork and someone driven by their attention to detail, I have a wide set of skills to offer any business in the industry. I have recently moved with my family permanently to Thunder Bay under the Rural & Northern Immigration pilot from Sri Lanka.
