Summary

I Started my career as a registered nurse, where I gained many skills and knowledge that have benefitted me. I worked in a fast-paced environment. After a few years, I then decided to work alongside my father in JL Landscaping as a labourer. This employment enabled me to adapt to a different environment, gain experience, and break into the construction industry. I took a career break, and I decided to move to Australia to advance my construction career. I have worked alongside all different types of trades on civil construction projects. I have gained both confidence and a wide variety of skills. I have recently relocated to Western Australia in hopes of gaining employment/a career in the mining industry.
