Summary

I've been passionately pursuing my career since I was 18 with the goal to slowly enhance my ability as a young chef, nevertheless my passion for food and working with it has been with me since a young age, my most memorable and happy times from my childhood to my teenage years are always linked to food and a kitchen, probably this is one of the main reason why I was drawn to The Clocktower; it took a lot of courage and confidence to leave my country and home, come as a J1 and do my internship, it meant leaving family, friends and everything I knew for a long time. But were all those memories and wonderful moments with food that gave the strength to work hard everyday and keep pursuing my passion.

I started working at GK with a lot of hope and good energy to learn new things, improve my skill and acquire new ones. Sadly because of the recent global events I got laid off, hoping to go back to the kitchen soon.

I believe I'll be an asset to your team and you'll help me grow. I'm a young, hard working and determinate, women with a lot of passion and willing to learn and help as much as I can.

If you have any questions please feel free to reach me.
