Summary

As an enthusiastic and driven University student commencing my Honours Degree, I bring a strong foundation in communication, problem-solving, and technical skills. Over the past four years, I have refined my abilities in data entry, coding, and data analysis through academic projects and hands-on experience. In addition, my work providing care to children in a school setting has developed my capacity for building positive relationships, navigating sensitive situations with confidentiality, and maintaining open, inviting communication. Passionate about service to others, I am eager to continue growing professionally and contribute meaningfully to a long-term role within a dynamic and supportive environment.
