Summary

As a business owner and Mother, I am proficient in multi-tasking and prioritising. I foster strong listening and interpreting skills which I believe to be invaluable whether working as part of a team or with the general public. Whilst I possess strong leadership capabilities, I equally enjoy learning new skills and being mentored. My desire for continual personal growth and education means I am always open to new opportunities, whilst my dedication to the job at hand is consistently 100 per cent.
