PIPPA BARNES

St Kilda West,VIC

Summary

I'm a highly motivated student in my second year of a combined Law (Honours) and Science degree at the Australian National University. I bring a strong academic record, along with proven experience balancing study with demanding part-time roles that require initiative, clear communication, and attention to detail. My experience spans private tutoring for primary school students and working in fast-paced hospitality environments, where I've developed excellent time management, interpersonal, and problem-solving skills. I take pride in being organised, reliable, and quick to adapt to new systems and responsibilities. I'm eager to apply my strengths in communication, critical thinking, and teamwork in a professional environment where I can meaningfully contribute, learn from others, and continue building a strong foundation for a future legal career.
