TURA BEACH,NSW

Summary

Originally from Melbourne, I relocated to Bega Valley in 1993 after completing a Bachelor of Science degree at Deakin University, and I have thoroughly enjoyed being here ever since.

I have extensive experience in the real estate industry, having operated a successful office for 15 years and worked with various other companies.

With a diverse and well-rounded skill set that spans across several key areas, including mathematics, media, and sales, I am able to apply analytical thinking, creativity, and strategic problem-solving to various tasks and challenges.

In addition to my technical skills, I am highly proficient in using a variety of software tools, such as Excel, Publisher, and PowerPoint, which I utilize to streamline work processes, create compelling presentations, and manage data effectively. These skills have enabled me to contribute to the success of various projects and to ensure that goals are met efficiently.

I also have strong management abilities and interpersonal skills, which allow me to lead teams, collaborate with others, and communicate effectively with individuals across different demographic backgrounds.

Whether working independently or as part of a team, I am able to engage with people in a professional and approachable manner, fostering positive relationships and productive environments.

Currently, I am seeking a career change and exploring new opportunities where I can leverage my diverse skill set, gain new experiences, and continue to grow both personally and professionally.
