ABOUT

READY TO WORK.

Ojai local, Colorado State senior, home and ready to work. Six years on the floor — serving at Yume, running rentals and closing the summer's highest helmet sales at Meiners Oaks, interning in sales at Nexus Diagnostics. I'm on time, I read the room, and every guest gets treated like the reason the door is open. Years of martial arts training means I stay composed when a shift gets loud. Looking for bar, FOH, sales, or door work in the valley — full-time, part-time, weekends, I'm flexible.

DISCIPLINE
02 ╱ 07
COMPOSED UNDER PRESSURE.

Years of martial arts — multiple styles, live sparring, consistent training. That's not a hobby line on a résumé; it's how I show up. I stay calm when a room gets tense, I read body language before it becomes a problem, and I can handle a difficult situation without making it worse. Useful behind a bar. Useful at a door. Useful on any floor that gets loud at 11 PM.
