Michael Toupin

Since 2018, I have worked alongside my father in his Central Massachusetts-based catering company, supporting hundreds of large-scale events ranging from weddings and corporate functions to private parties. As his right-hand man, I’ve played a key role in executing successful catering jobs that serve anywhere from 100 to 500 guests. My responsibilities have included setting up and breaking down events, managing logistics, coordinating with staff, and ensuring smooth operations under tight deadlines. This experience has taught me the importance of teamwork, adaptability, and communication, as I regularly collaborate with a team to deliver high-quality service across diverse venues and client needs. Catering has been my main job throughout my life, and it has deeply shaped my work ethic and ability to perform under pressure.

While assisting the New Braintree Fire Department, I was responsible for uploading and organizing detailed information about every residential property in the town into their emergency response software. This included inputting critical data, such as addresses, the number of rooms, the number of floors, building layouts, and other structural details. The goal was to ensure that first responders could quickly access accurate and essential information during fire-related incidents. My work helped improve the department’s response efficiency and safety planning by making property data readily available for firefighters en route to emergency calls.
