Summary

I am a proactive and adaptable 25-year-old professional with a strong aptitude for thriving in dynamic, fast-paced environments and engaging with diverse individuals. I achieved a second-class honours degree in Sports Studies and Physical Education from the University College Cork (UCC). My extensive experience in the Education and service industry since the age of 15, has equipped me with invaluable skills in communications multitasking, and managing high-pressure situations within team settings.

In addition, my work in a private psychological practice as an office administrator and Education consultant has significantly developed my critical thinking, analytical, problem-solving, organisational, and communication abilities. This experience has also refined my attention to detail and time management skills. With three years of experience in a Psychological practice, I am a strong advocate for continuous professional development and am eager to further enhance my skills and contribute effectively in any role offered.
