Additional Information
I bring several years of hands-on work experience across customer service and fast-paced environments, including two years as a McDonald’s crew member, four years as a Sam’s Club associate, and one year as a barista at Koffi. Throughout this time, I developed strong communication skills, reliability, and the ability to work efficiently under pressure while building positive relationships with customers and coworkers. I follow the principle of treating others with respect and professionalism, which guides how I approach my work every day. I take pride in my work ethic, consistently arriving early to prepare for my shifts, supporting my team beyond expectations, and taking accountability for mistakes by correcting them quickly and learning from them. I believe dependability, honesty, and continuous improvement are key strengths I bring to any workplace.
