Clear Water

Harbor

Blue Plant Leaf

Clear Water Harbor is the restaurant that I began waitressing at when I was 18 years old and freshly out of high school. Operating seasonally from mid-April to the end of the semester, the restaurant’s wait and bar staff is primarily composed of college students working in between their semesters. I have loved working for Clear Water Harbor over the past four years, and I’m grateful to say that I’ve met some of my best friends while working there.


While I was studying abroad in Australia, I struggled to find an internship back home in the US for the summer of 2023. Rather than giving up, I used this as an opportunity to revise my summer plans. I ended up returning to my hometown to work at Clear Water Harbor as a full-time waitress, taking on some higher-level responsibilities within the position. Additionally, I began working for the company as a part-time Marketing Assistant, using my creative skills to boost the restaurant’s image.
