Summary

I am a hard working person with experience in the human services field providing support and guidance to individuals in need. In my current role I have developed a strong understanding of effectively working with people from diverse backgrounds. I am skilled at listening to customers, exceeding productivity targets and maintaining customer confidentiality while also managing multiple priorities with a positive attitude.

Although I have only recently changed my career path I believe I am well equipped to manage most new challenges that come my way. Prior to embarking on a public service career I worked in the private sector as a Machinist for over 25 years in multiple countries and I believe this equipped me with the life skills and work ethic I can bring to public service.
