Restaurant & Bar Floor Manager
Run the floor during service — table flow, kitchen-floor coordination, opening and closing. Made me noticeably faster at reading a room under pressure.
Not a role history — short reports from places where the work actually happens. The floor of a restaurant, an exhibition hall, a two-day wedding.
"The people who taught me the most about business rarely called it that."

Show prospective students around and answer the questions that don't have official answers. Good practice at being useful on the spot, without a script.
150+ outbound calls a day inviting architects and designers to an exhibition, plus live event support. Turned cold outreach from intimidating into routine.
Coordinated a two-day, four-function wedding alongside a crew I'd just met. Taught me that teamwork often comes from shared urgency, not formal structure.
Built content strategy from scratch for several early-stage clients at once. Grew visibility by over 50% and followers by up to 40% across accounts.
Built a youth media platform from zero — 50+ episodes produced, hosted and edited myself. Audience grew ~30% through a fireside chat series.
Taught five students one-to-one at once. Average 20% improvement in six months, all five in the top 10% of their class.
Volunteering, elected roles, and club leadership — a lightweight ledger of the places where I first learned to run things, represent people, and be useful when nobody was going to grade me on it.
Voice for the cohort in programme decisions — the person who has to actually raise the awkward question.
Content and tutoring for an educational NGO — turning learning material into something students actually wanted to open.
Ran the club's external voice — press, partners, and the Pitch Fest win at UDDHAV.
Peer-support role — helped classmates navigate coursework and represented the student side to faculty.
On-the-ground community drives — the kind of work that resets what you think 'a busy week' means.
Logistics, registration, and keeping the machine running while everyone else was debating.
