Diet Aide
Bayview Retirement Community
As a diet aide in the Health Center I help to prepare and serve meals to the residents in accordance to medical nutrition therapy under supervision of a RD. I have to ensure each resident receives meals that coincide with their specific preferences and dietary requirements. Therefore, this position has strengthened my knowledge of medical nutrition therapy for various conditions, such as dysphagia, diabetes, liver and renal disease.

Teen Feed meal program offers nutritious food to homeless and at-risk youth in the Seattle area. As a volunteer, I help with the preparation and service of meals to the homeless youth that come for assistance. It has been a wonderful way to give back to my community.
Server
Louie's Cuisine of China
Joey's Lake Union
Wasabi Bistro
Over the past 10 years I have worked as a server at various restaurants in Seattle. I gained customer service and teamwork skills as I had to work cooperatively with a vide variety of people. Being a server also requires exceptional multi-tasking skills and the ability to work calmly under pressure. I was also required to obtain a food handler’s permit in order to work in these establishments and was trained in food safety.
