Summary

Recipient of the ANDREW LAMING Award (TAFE QLD 2018) in recognition of citizenship, conscientiousness and commitment to work ethic, consistently demonstrated throughout the senior studies Accredited program.

Dedicated and persistent, with a strengthened ability to maintain composure in pressuring and complex situations either autonomously or as a team. Combining this with an amiable and welcoming demeanour allows me to form strong, trusting and reliable relationships that complement my conscientious work ethic, which is driven by attention to detail.
