Summary
I have extensive experience leading a logistics team at Optus Stadium for multiple years. Throughout these years I have learnt how to be time efficient, communicate efficiently, problem solve and handle pressurized situations. Away from work, I am a committed and dedicated student-athlete that wants to be able to perform at the highest levels, whilst juggling the workload of university.
Through the trials and tribulations of sport it has shaped into the focused, disciplined and goal achieving person I am today. I believe these skills I have acquired over the years will be beneficial to any workplace and will hold me in good stead for my career.
