Summary

Honest and reliable, I am a highly motivated, quick learner who enjoys a challenge and is not afraid to ask questions or source information to ensure the correct outcome of my task. A great listener, with a friendly nature, my excellent communication style enables me to relate well to people of all levels. While I can work well within a team, I can be trusted and relied upon to work unsupervised. Confident and outgoing with a good sense of humour, I enjoy learning new skills, as well as developing my current skills. With my professional, positive attitude I know I will be an asset to any employer.
