Summary

Hello! I am an enthusiastic person who loves to talk to people, possesses good communication skills and loves working in team environments. I enjoy change and new experiences and can adapt very easily to different situations. In school our classes often change up from time to time and I have become comfortable with these transitions. I'm level headed when it comes to stress and can manage other peoples stress very well too. I live with my twin brother so I've learned to keep cool, calm and collected from the past with him. I love to keep busy creating all kinds of things and I had so much fun on a barista course in the Dublin Barista School on Annes Street. There, I learned all things coffee from weighing, tamping, brewing and texturing. I hope to be able to bring my creativity and passion into the workplace as well.
