READY TO WORK.

Ojai local, Colorado State senior, home and ready to work. Six years across restaurants, retail, and youth leadership — from running tables at Yume Japanese Burgers to managing rentals at Meiners Oaks Bike Shop. I show up on time, I read the room, and I treat every customer like they're the reason the door opens. Looking for front-of-house, server, or retail work in the valley — full-time, part-time, or weekends, I'm flexible.
