Summary
Current C drivers license and a current Blue Card. I believe that all people should live an inspired life in order for us all to be able to better take care of our world. I want to be a person who can help others to ignite their inspiration and potential to live that kind of life. I know that is what I am looking for by learning all that I can and staying curious, that is something I bring to my work. I am outgoing, multi-skilled, efficient and have worked in many different employment positions that makes me adaptable to all kinds of situations. I am currently working as a Paediatric Occupational Therapist with my current clinic. I have several different qualifications such as a Bachelor of Occupational Therapy, Certificate IV in Business Administration and Transport and Logistics. I have developed many skills from courses and past positions including use of various technology, administration work, identifying and assisting those with learning difficulties and ineffective behaviours, problem solving, effective communication face to face and over the phone, negotiation, effective time management, close attention to detail and team-work. This is what I can offer and more if given the chance to show my mettle.
