Travelling
Description
I am a person who loves nature and meeting new people. To stay active, I spend my spare time running and climbing. I also enjoy art, and dedicate time to painting as well as visiting museums. Additionally, I have been a professional cook for years and am always happy to cook for others. I recently graduated from the University of Utah with a degree in marketing. I am a person who puts utmost value on upholding my principles and virtues. I find purpose in disciplined habits, but also find inspiration and joy in the most spontaneous, beautiful moments life has to offer. I find joy in incremental progress, not discouraged by the time it takes for my efforts to yield their fruits, or whether they bear fruits at all. Beyond all else, I value my relationships with other people; giving without expectation, being unafraid to make connections, and striving to be a source of steadfast optimism in the lives of people I contact.

Coordination & Teamwork
Years in fast-paced kitchen environments and university projects have honed my ability to work collaboratively. I am receptive to instruction, eager to improve, and understand the importance of clear communication. I prioritize building a positive work environment by being kind, helpful, and reliable—qualities that drive team success.
Attention to Detail
Whether in food service or marketing, I hold myself to high standards of quality and consistency. I actively seek feedback to refine my work and always look for ways to improve. In the kitchen, I focus on mastering techniques; in client work, I prioritize clarity and precision—both require the same commitment to excellence.
Efficiency & Organization
Preparation and organization are key to working efficiently under pressure. I take pride in staying ahead by prepping thoroughly, keeping workspaces clean, and staying structured in my approach. These habits reduce stress, boost productivity, and contribute to a smoother workflow—no matter the role.

What else ...
Running: I love to run- I do it every day. I especially love running up mountains, as the difficulty makes other challenges in my life seem less significant. Running is also a way for me to socialize as I love run clubs and running with my friends. I have completed 2 marathons with my next one being in April.
Food: I have had a passion for food and cooking since a young age, leading me to work for various restaurants and high-end food stores. I also express my love for food via foraging and gardening.
