Summary

Dedicated and adaptable professional with a proven ability to excel under pressure in dynamic, fast-paced environments while consistently meeting deadlines. My diverse experience includes roles such as a receptionist in a beauty salon, where I developed strong interpersonal and organizational skills by managing bookings and handling inquiries, and as a pharmacy advisor, where I honed efficiency in high-demand settings. Outside of work, I enjoy reading, exploring new interests, traveling, hiking, and spending time with friends.

Skydive Manifest/ground Crew

Skydive Australia
Cairns, QLD
08.2024 - Current

As a Manifest staff member at a skydiving operation, my role is multifaceted and essential to the smooth running of each day. I handle the front desk, where I check people in, process payments, and ensure that each skydiver is assigned to the correct aircraft load. I also ensure that all necessary drop zone waivers are completed and keep track of important details like weight and balance, fuel levels, and gear checks. I also edit videos for tandem skydivers, which becomes a full-time task in itself. In addition to these duties, I manage the complex logistics of coordinating tandem and AFF student registrations, and I keep track of instructors, AFF instructors, and camera flyers, making sure they have time to pack and prep between jumps. Throughout the day, I’m in constant communication with pilots, ground crew, and answering the phone, all while remaining mindful of the various emotions of skydivers—whether it’s stress, excitement, anxiety, or fear—ensuring a smooth, safe, and memorable experience for everyone.
