Summary

Dear Employer,


My name is Elisabeth and I was born on March 1st, 2001. I grew up solely in Newport, NSW, with my parents and two brothers until 2005. At this time, we were fortunate enough to begin living a dual lifestyle between Newport and my father's family property where he was raised. This is located between Yetman, NSW, and Goondiwindi, QLD - 20 kilometres from the former and 52 from the latter.


Following a year of preschool in Newport, I attended Yetman Public School which amounted to 17 students at the time. After completion, I commenced my secondary education at Frensham, an all-girls boarding school. In 2019 - my first year out of school, I spent 6 months enjoying casual work before following my passion for psychology. I began a Bachelor of Psychological Science in Trimester 2 at University of New England, Armidale, residing at Robb College. I did a year of college and have since lived in share houses in Armidale, and now Sydney.


Due to my unconventional upbringing and life to this point, I have been so lucky to experience different environments and make connections with many people. As a result, I thrive in a great deal of situations and have adopted a strong independence without fearing guidance.


I consider myself personable and empathetic, honest, and ambitious, and I intend on becoming a valuable member when committing to a mutually beneficial position.


Thank you for reading and don't hesitate to contact me with any questions!
