  Hi, I’m a troubled College student that is trying my best to get through this college and try to remake my classes that I missed out on because I got about two semesters robbed from me. My Academic experience is that important in my eyes and probably not interesting. My Academic goals are to aim for a hospitality management degree aimed towards the Food and beverages section.

     At the moment I don’t have any career experience in the kitchen but learning to work with people is what I’m working on at the moment. I work at a Vape Shop that is the only Vape Shop in New York that owns a liquor license making it into a vape and bar lounge. Working at this vape shop allows me to learn how people react to long waits, busy atmospheres, rudeness that may be thrown at us employees and how to accept and go around it, and how to act professionally selling products. 

What I’m trying to aim for is to open my own food truck. To travel around sharing my food out to the people. To show the people I cook and the different types of cultures I like to fusion with. Before I open a food truck I’m aiming to get an associate or a bachelor degree in Hospitality Management to become a chef. 

     My strongest strength is that I can Multitask. Being able to multitask would be a great professional attribute because in a kitchen you can’t just focus on just one plate or dish until it’s done to start the other dish. To be able to multitask while cooking saves time and doesn’t lose a customer because of the long wait.
