Hello, I'm Shannon.

I'm a young, enthusiastic waitress from Scotland. I have a strong passion for music, travelling and the catering industry. To be able to merge all three, is a dream I'd love to achieve one day.

I've been a waitress for a family run business back home from the age of 13. Whether it be working in the café; waiting tables, seating customers, making coffees ect, or working in the interiors learning to hand sew curtains or blinds from scratch, I embraced every opportunity I was given to learn something new. Working at Katy Rodgers Artisan Dairy has given me years of experience in many trades, making me the confident woman I believe I am today. I have grown a strong love for meeting new people, learning new tricks of the trade, and having such a variety of jobs to do there has helped me develop the ability to take on multiple tasks and complete them to the highest standards, without cracking under the pressure. When I moved into Edinburgh, I began working for an Italian Restaurant, Zucca. Primarily catering for pre-theatre customers, I began to learn how to serve large crowds of people over a short time frame. I thrived off this challenge, and learnt very quickly how to work efficiently under this pressure. I was very keen to advance my opportunities in the catering industry, and so I applied to EBS Paris to extend my understanding of working as a bartender. I completed this course with 95%, and am now eager to put the skills I learnt to practise.
