Through a diverse range of roles, I have proven myself as a highly adaptable individual who learns quickly on the job. As well as being a strong team player and communicator who interacts well with individuals at all levels both within and outside the organization, I am equally comfortable working on my own. I thrive on new challenges, have great problem-solving skills, listening skills, communication skills and proactively seek to understand all aspects of the business in order to deliver the most proficient results.
