Summary

I have worked with a variety of people in different industries, this has allowed me to develop a wide range of skills from support, leadership, de-escalation and safety in diverse environments with some even being dangerous and stressful but very rewarding. I am a calm positive person who has done sports my whole life including surfing, football, tennis and boxing. I love the outdoors, learning and helping others wether it is minimal support in daily living, protection or striving to be the best in the nation at sport. I am reliable, respectful and follow business protocols.
