Summary

Looking for an organization where I can enhance my knowledge and from my academic learning give my best to the organization. To seek challenging assignments and responsibility, with an opportunity for growth and career. At the age of 19, I began my culinary journey as a kitchen assistant, driven by a deep passion for Asian cuisine. I have dedicated myself to mastering the intricate techniques and rich flavors that define this culinary tradition. My commitment and hard work led me to my most recent role as a Commis chef, where I honed my skills in a fast-paced, high end kitchen environment. This experience solidified my love for the culinary arts and my determination to continue growing in the world of Asian cuisine.
