Summary

I am a 25-year-old, who will commit to a company long-term and provide consistent growth to become a valuable asset to the team. I am highly organised and detail oriented, having cultivated skills in time management, active listening and building rapport while remaining adaptable to change. Even though I take my work seriously, I’d like to say I also have a good sense of humour. I have just over 10 years of customer-facing experience, working with empathy to understand and enhance the customer journey.
