Oliver Gundlach

I recently graduated from UNC Chapel Hill and want to stay in the Triangle, but am not having much luck finding a job in my field of interest. I love music, traveling, art, and learning new things. I am currently seeking a job in the food-service industry as I want to work in a fast-paced environment where I can learn new skills. I have also always been told that everyone should work a food-service job and I have some but I know I would fit in great.
