Summary
Hi my names Brendan as you've read about my work an school history let me tell you a bit about myself.
Im 25 was born in England an moved too Australia when i was 8, i play footy and try too snowboard as much as i can. Travelling is a really big passion off mine an im proud too say i did the mt everest base camp trek with my sister in 2022.
The jobs i have worked im grateful for, for the things they have taught me not just about the job its self but life experience an a lot of other useful things such as my communication skills and networking.
My major passion an what makes me happy are animals especially dogs but all animals in general, and for this reason im deciding too do a career change. I start my study's soon for cert II in animal care and plan to do further study's after hopefully becoming a vet nurse.
The jobs i have done i haven't enjoyed so too speak i didn't wake up super excited about it, with animals i will. And i think that's really important.
Id love the opportunity too work with dogs at a kennel or any type of animal setting, dogs have been apart of my life since i was born an will never see that changing.
kind regards.
