Work Experience
I have experience working in service at Sussex Coast College and alternate between the restaurant and the kitchen. During my first year I completed a 6 week placement within Costa in house at my college. I also successfully completed a 6 week placement at the Sussex Exchange, Hastings.
In May this year I went to France for 2 weeks to cook French food as part of my college course. I then spent a month in Seville, Spain working in a restaurant. This was a fantastic experience and I have learnt many skills. I prepared for service, I also cooked many dishes from the menu, learnt about local dishes including meats and fish, learned some Spanish and helped out wherever needed.
For the last year of college, I have had a part-time job at Sadies Cafe in Bexhill. I prepare and cooked all dishes from the menu. I also help with cleaning and clearing up at the end of each shift.
Hobbies:
I like to keep healthy by doing to the gym and running. I enjoy quality time with my family. I am mildly dyslexic.
