Summary

I am a hardworking and reliable individual with a strong background in both customer-facing and self-managed roles. With over two years of experience in the hospitality industry, I have developed excellent communication skills, and the ability to thrive in fast-paced, team-driven environments. For nearly six years, I have successfully managed my own garden maintenance business, demonstrating initiative, time management, and a strong work ethic. In addition, I have actively contributed to charitable causes, raising over £1,000 for an under-65 dementia support group. I hold a degree in Politics and American Studies from the University of Nottingham, which has equipped me with strong analytical and interpersonal skills that I bring to every role.
