Professional Summary
The service industry has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. My grandfather owned a restaurant supply company along with 4 other restaurants where I have all worked at. Serving allows me to enjoy my extroverted side and meet new people while being able to work and have a good time. I really like talking to others and getting to meet new people. I have a huge passion for service and like to volunteer when I can. Last year, I had the pleasure of planning an Autism Awareness Benefit my senior year of high school. We raised over $27,000 for the SOS Health Care housing project. I am a huge people person and have an aspiring dream to be an ER Physician's Assistant that I am pursing confidently.
