Summary
As my current job only has an availability of a casual position and limited hours available, I am seeking a more permanent position either part or full time that will provide me with more stability and a guaranteed and predictable income. Furthermore, as my expenditures increase such as registration, fuel and board, and my desire to travel, expand hobbies and seek independent living outside of the family home, I require a higher more stable income to meet these living requirements.
I am a quick learner with a positive attitude, I am reliable and get along with others, I have no problem following directions and can use my initiative when working alone.
I believe I can be an asset to any workplace in many ways. I have my own vehicle so I can travel to and from work at any time with no problems.

Hobbies and Interests
Currently, to pursue my hobbies and my love of the equine industry, I lease an off the track horse at a farm property in Eagleby. I enjoy being surrounded by nature whether that be going to the beach, swimming at the rock pools or a bush walk on Tambourine Mountain. I enjoy going to the gym 5 days a week, I like to keep strong and healthy.
