Summary
I have been cooking for nearly 10 years now and have proven myself and exemplary employee at each of my 5 jobs. I am eager, however, to get out of the restaurant industry, and I think I would be a welcome addition to any team in any capacity.
Education
I attended Pennridge High School in Perkasie Pennsylvania and graduated with a 3.8 GPA. I was interested in art, and played viola with the orchestra for 10 years.
Experience
I have been an exemplary, reliable and long-term employee at each and every job, filling at one point or another, every position available in an industrial kitchen.
