RESTAURANT OWNER
Summary

As a restaurant owner, I have learned to multitask and do anything and everything. I excel in menu writing, social media, scheduling, payroll, website maintenance, and ordering. I have worked in restaurants my whole life including working as a baker, line cook, server, barista and manager.

Due to COVID-19 and it's impact on my restaurants I am looking for any side jobs that I can do to bring in extra money to keep things going during this tough time. I am a hustler and who you want on your team to get the job done with no excuses.
