Week 2
My name is Tyrah George, and I am 17 years old. I major in hospitality management at City Tech College. Since starting my semester at City Tech, I have been thinking about how I am gonna gain proper experience while I’m in college to be able to properly use my degree once I’ve obtained it. Currently I am on track to receiving my bachelors degree, and I hope this is a plan I see through. In the future I see myself becoming a chef, eventually leading to me owning a restaurant. At the moment I have no experience inside of an actual restaurant kitchen, but I do practice at home. I’ve been trying to look for places to start my journey, although I am convinced I’m not looking hard enough. I’m a great listener, strong communicator, Leader, and good at multitasking. Those are good qualities to have going into the hospitality industry, because people are going to constantly look to you to lead and give them direct answers. A hobby I have is that I love writing poetry. One of my favorite stanzas from a poem I’ve written is…
“Love me or hate me I don’t care
I’ve come far without you didn’t need you here
It’s like a bike climbed the highest mountain with no surrounding
Or the birds drinking water without a grounded fountain”- Tyrah George
It’s one of my favorites because it symbolizes doing the impossible.
Week 14
During the 12 weeks that I have been in college my point of views on hospitality and what I want to accomplish in this industry has changed. I now know that it takes more than hard work and time to persevere in this industry. You need the techniques, skills, and traits of leader to becomes a major key player. I’ve started cooking more and more in the house as a result of what i’m learning in my classes. The goal is still to own a restaurant, but more importantly I want to inspire others and lead the future path for hospitality while doing so. I will be starting my journey in hospitality very soon I hope, because I have attended an interview to a catering job. So I may finally be finding my start somewhere. I’m a great listener, strong communicator, Leader, and good at multitasking. I feel as if I’m a natural born leader, and although I never wanted to lead I feel as if it’s my time to step up. Learning more about the industry in class has given me the insight to finally figure out the path I want to take and pursue seriously as a restaurant owner.
I believe you have started your journey already!
For your linked in, I think the following will be a great “about”, I took out the word “still” other wise the words are your own.
