Summary
Versatile and grounded, I bring a rare mix of hands-on work ethic, creative fluency, and customer-facing experience across music, hospitality, and retail. From working the bar at Canberra’s premier jazz venue to contributing at a boutique fashion store, I’ve consistently delivered thoughtful service with attention to detail and calm under pressure. My background in jazz performance, combined with years of physical work on a family farm, gives me a unique balance of discipline, intuition, and cultural awareness—qualities I bring to every team I join.
