Summary

As a server, I have developed many skills in customer service, attention to detail, multitasking, teamwork, and leadership. Along with this, I have taken a plethora of ecology-based classes in order to expand my knowledge and skillset regarding Kingdom Plantae, Fungi, and Animalia. I have learned the inner workings of plants, identifying species, basic plant care, and ecological relationships. Overall, I have a diverse skillset I believe to be suitable for any customer service and/or biology-based job.
