Summary
I’m a motivated and adaptable professional who takes pride in being reliable, goal-driven, and easy to work with.
I’ve built a strong foundation across residential real estate, customer service, and administration within the home building industry, as well as hands-on experience in sales—particularly hiring and upselling products for civil and construction projects.
Whether I’m working as part of a team or independently, I bring a positive attitude and a focus on getting the job done well. I’m now looking to take the next step in my career by joining a well-established organisation where I can continue learning, growing, and contributing meaningfully.
