Hello, my name is Maria. With nearly 18 years of diverse work experience, I've honed my skills in design, administration, and teaching. I have a background in interior design, project management, and teaching English. Recently, I completed training in virtual assistance and Amazon product research. I'm passionate about continuous learning and excited to bring my expertise to your team. On a side note, I grew up in the food business. Being a Kapampangan, I'm surrounded by family and relatives who are passionate about cooking. This culinary environment has been a significant influence in my life. I started to learn how to cook when I lived abroad, having lived independently. Over the years, I've mastered various recipes and techniques, transforming cooking from a necessity into a beloved hobby. In late 2018, I started a weekend food pop-up stall. While it was full of challenges and we faced difficulties pursuing it due to the pandemic lockdowns, the experience taught me resilience and adaptability. My experience in the food business has taught me the importance of creativity, precision, and customer satisfaction—skills I bring to every aspect of my work. I am confident that my expertise can significantly contribute to your company's success. I look forward to the opportunity to work together.
