      Barista

      As a Barista with Starbucks, I engaged in customer service, relationship building and gained coffee knowledge. Engaging with customers and building connections during peak times ensured high sales and higher customer connections. At Starbucks, I went above and beyond the traditional role of a barista and ensured everyone feels welcome at Starbucks as a third-place - a place to be oneself after home and work..

      Child And Youth Worker

      As a child and youth support worker, I get to work, serve and connect with youth, mostly indigenous, who struggle with mental health issues, drug use and addictions. The role comes with responsibilities to ensure their well being, work through life skills and valuable learning. It also equips the skills of de-escalation and crisis intervention enabling me to deal in critical situations and ensure safety whilst communicating in a calm manner and following company-specific protocols.
