Summary
Im A hard working guy with a food service background with an eye on getting in to patient transport. I believe ill be really proud of myself in this industry. I enjoy my current and previous roles but i am ready to commit to something new.
My passions lie in patient interaction and care. I am often in the Upton house unit for psychiatric patients where i get on well with everyone and I have built a solid reputation in there. Im seen as very approachable by the patients, and I can often end up playing the piano with them or showing off a card trick for them.
