Summary

I am an enthusiastic and energetic 20 year-old who loves to work in challenging and new environments. I have a wide range of interests which help me connect and fit into a range of different workplaces. I'm comfortable working independently/unsupervised and have great pride in being given more responsibility. That being said I also thrive when working with others as I love to build people up and get them enthusiastic with the tasks at hand. I am a hard worker and have no problem when tasks become physically demanding.
