What do you most enjoy about this industry?
There are always new things to learn, new dishes, restaurants, chefs, you never stop learning.

What does a typical day look like for you?
I arrive at work between 7am- 7.30am, to start at 8am. I firstly check that everything I need is in my section, including in the fridge, checking all ingredient date labels.
We have a large number of covers daily, and so there is always a lot to be done. Between 8:30am-12pm will be mis on plas, and the lunch service will be 12-4pm. At the end of the day I make a list of things to do for the following day.

What has been the single most important piece of advice given to you?
An old executive chef told me to think of the industry like a long ladder, of which I am at the bottom, and he is 40 years my senior, and he is still learning and climbing. Never stop learning.
