Abby Blennerhassett
Busselton,WA
Summary
Hi my name is Abby Blennerhassett and I’m 22 years old. I’m currently looking for a job in the tourism industry, preferably something ocean based as I’ve grown up on the South West coastline and most of my interests involve being in the water.
Most of my past work history has been in the retail industry as well as being a childcare educator, which I’ve loved as there’s a big social aspect of both jobs and they are rewarding in many ways, but moving forward I would like to expand my current skills, and start working in an industry where there is opportunity to progress while also doing something that more reflects my personal interests.
