Louis Rodriguez is preparing for a career as a corrections officer. The work asks for discipline, procedure, and composure, and he has spent eight years proving those habits in a trade that runs on all three. A professional kitchen is a controlled environment under constant pressure, wherein safety rules carry real consequences, the chain of command is followed without debate, and the result is judged by what actually reaches the pass. He intends to bring that record into corrections, and he is willing to relocate anywhere in the country to begin.
The record behind the goal runs from June 2018 to May 2026: nine kitchens across New York, North Carolina, Utah, and Nevada, from neighborhood pizzerias to national chains. Every one of them ran on procedure. At I.G.H.L, a residential care organization in Manorville, New York, he cooked for residents for a full year and prepared blended meals for a given resident who could not eat whole foods, service that demanded patience and exact portioning. Between kitchen posts he drove deliveries in New York City for Uber. He holds ServSafe and food handler certifications and a Non CDL Class C license, and he is authorized to work in the United States for any employer.

Skills
The skills list on his resume is long, and part of it points straight at corrections work: security, patrolling, supervising experience, leadership, regulatory compliance, personal protective equipment use, communication, and time management. This is because the trade already asks for them every day. The rest of the list is the trade itself, and the trade is where the habits were earned.
Kitchen operations cover the line and prep across fry, sauté, pizza, grill, and overnight stations: high volume production, batch cooking, knife skills, recipe adherence and recipe scaling, plating and garnishing, dough work, and commercial equipment from combi ovens to industrial slicers.
Safety practice is certified and current. ServSafe and food handler credentials sit on top of daily habits [HACCP, allergen management, cross contamination prevention, temperature control, date marking and storage], this is practice that health inspectors grade without warning.
Service and reliability round it out: POS systems and cash handling, supervising and training exposure, a year of service in a residential care setting, heavy lifting and manual handling, and a record of holding opening, overnight, and closing shifts.
