Joshua Gause’s Summary

I have held a variety of positions in the retail and restaurant industries. This has given me a versatile customer service skill set with which to respond creatively to new situations and brainstorm resolutions to pressing concerns both within a company and from customers about the company.

I thrive on expanding my knowledge and skills within the customer service and restaurant/hospitality industries: adapting to new situations and resolving new issues to the complete satisfaction of all parties involved.

I've found that for every problem that arises: a little ingenuity and some hard work can almost always produce a satisfactory solution.

I am ultimately looking for a company with which I can exercise my creativity and experience to directly impact its growth and image.
