Summary

Currently serving as an Assistant Manager in a fast-paced retail environment, I bring strong leadership, composure under pressure, and effective team coordination. My previous experience as a support worker and volunteer surf life saver has equipped me with practical emergency response skills and a solid foundation in patient-focused care. I'm now ready to apply these strengths in a medic role with professionalism and purpose.
