Description

My name is Teresa, aka Tess, and I am from Santa Cruz, California. I grew up surrounded by nature and animals and am very passionate and knowledgeable about caring for them, especially horses!
I have been working as a server in popular restaurants for about 5 years now, so I have lots of experience in customer serviceand I love getting to serve guests and making people feel welcome and taken care of.
I am definitely a people person in general, and I love learning new skills and languages and hearing people's stories!
My biggest dream is to achieve fluency in Spanish, so I practice wherever I can and would love to participate in a language exchange and teach English too!

More details about your skills

-Childcare: I grew up babysitting the many young children in my family and I also worked for several years as a gymnastics coach and summer camp instructor for kids ages 4-14. I love working with kids and am excited to do more of it on workaway!
-Animal care: I have over ten years of experience riding and training horses- I grew up with them and eventually trained my own horse as a teenager! I have also spent lots of time with dogs and cats over the years, so I feel very comfortable with them. I love animals and would love to help out in any way I can, especially with horse care and training!
-Customer Service: I have worked in various customer service jobs over the years, especially restaurants, so I have a lot of experience helping guests in a friendly and polite way
-General people skills- I am a pretty extroverted person and I love working with people. I am always eager to learn new skills and help out wherever I'm needed!
