"I love eating at Olive Garden -- it's my family's Sunday afternoon tradition -- and one thing I've always noticed about the waitstaff is that they're extremely knowledgeable about all of the fresh ingredients, new dishes, and wine pairings available. I think that really sets your employees apart from other restaurants. I would describe myself as a lifelong learner -- I love to research and try to learn something new everyday, so I'm excited to dive into the ingredient, dish, and wine information so that I can relay that information to my customers."
