Summary
I am a punctual, reliable, and well-mannered 18-year-old seeking casual or permanent work in the horticulture, land care, retail, or health care industries. I am a quick learner, adaptable, and can work effectively both independently and as part of a team.

In my spare time, I am a keen gardener and passionate about music, having played guitar for over four years. I am also experienced with computers and adept in various social media platforms and office technology programs.
My compassionate nature, strong moral compass, and respectful attitude would make me an asset to your facility.
