Summary

Enthusiastic and dedicated professional with a passion for engaging with diverse communities and a strong commitment to confidentiality, empathy and respectful communication. After transitioning from early childhood, I am eager to apply my interpersonal skills, organizational abilities and resilience to contribute to government survey initiatives like the ABS. With experience in managing multiple tasks simultaneously, ensuring schedules were adhered to, daily routines were followed and all documentation was completed accurately and on time. I am adept at managing sensitive subject matter, building rapport with individuals from all backgrounds and maintaining professionalism in challenging situations. Comfortable with technology, navigating new environments and working independently, I am committed to achieving high-quality results in fieldwork, data collection and client engagement.
