About Candidate
I’m a passionate and hardworking individual with a growing interest in food service and kitchen operations. Cooking has always been something i love,even before i began my academic journey. Though i initially earned an HND in Estate Management to follow a traditional path to please my parents. I later chose to pursue my true passion for cooking by enrolling in online courses in Human Nutrition, Food hygiene & Safety, Food & Health to build a solid foundation. I’m now eager to gain hands-on kitchen experience, support chefs, and contribute to a clean, efficient cooking environment. I’m a fast learner, organized and committed to high hygiene and safety standards.
