Summary

Adept at preventive maintenance and a master of troubleshooting, I excelled at Lamson Concepts Pty Ltd by enhancing system reliability across numerous hospitals. My leadership and relationship-building skills ensured client trust and team efficiency, with a notable achievement in programming exclusive to a select few in Australia.

During my time in sales at Ray White Croydon, I received an award of being the number 1 sales person in our office at the same time that our office was the number 1 sales office in Australia.

In my role as a Pneumatic tube technician I was trained to program a system that only a few people in Australia can program.

As a young worker of 18 entering the work force at Department of Human services, I was made a team Leader within 6 months of starting.
