I worked in a fast-paced college town restaurant as a Host/Busser, where I greeted and seated guests, managed waitlists during busy hours, and ensured smooth front-of-house operations. Assisted servers by clearing and resetting tables quickly, keeping the dining area clean and organized. Gained strong communication skills by interacting with a diverse crowd and worked efficiently as part of a team to provide great customer service in a high-energy environment.

After starting as a Host/Busser, I was promoted to Food Expeditor, where I took on the responsibility of coordinating between the kitchen and the front-of-house team to ensure orders were prepared accurately and delivered on time. I prioritized and organized food tickets, communicated any special requests or modifications, and helped maintain smooth service during busy periods. This role helped me develop strong attention to detail, quick decision-making skills, and the ability to stay calm under pressure.

As a Community Assistant at Gateway at Tempe, I helped create a fun and welcoming environment for residents. I gave tours to future residents, Planned and ran events, and helped with any questions or problems whenever people needed support. I worked closely with the team to keep things running smoothly and made sure everyone felt at home in the community.

Over the summer, I worked with the maintenance team to help get the property ready for new residents. I helped with things like turning units, completing small work orders, and making sure everything was clean and in good shape. It was a great way for me to learn more about how the property runs behind the scenes.
