Summary

As an experienced educator, I have honed strong organisational, communication, and time management skills, which have been essential in my leadership and management roles. Throughout my teaching career, I have found fulfillment in stepping into senior positions that required project management, strategic planning, and operational oversight. I am a reliable, detail-oriented, and proactive team player with a commitment to effective team building and successful project execution. My adaptability and ability to remain calm under pressure make me well-suited for a career in emergency response operations management.
