Kayla Fury
Third-year paramedicine student at the University of Southern Queensland. I am self-motivated, dedicated and compassionate person. I have varied work experience which has contributed to my skills of adaptability and learning on the go, which has fostered a strong work ethic that I continue to carry through every chapter of my life.
Through customer service, I have gained strong communication and interpersonal skills by working with people from diverse backgrounds in fast-paced environments. I have developed the ability to remain calm under pressure, resolve problems professionally and adapt my communication to meet individual needs, while consistently delivering respectful and person-centred service.
Through my experience as a stable manager and being part of the equestrian community, I have gained leadership, organisation and time management skills while working in a demanding environment. I learned to prioritise tasks, work effectively within a team and remain calm when responding to unexpected situations, strengthening my resilience and commitment to safety.
