Summary
I am passionate about supporting the communities in which we operate and and understand the diverse needs of not-for-profit organisations and community groups. From running hands-on educational workshops in schools, aligning with the Australian Curriculum, to planning large-scale community involvement projects such as painting and garden make-overs for animal shelters, I have acquired many desirable hard skills and soft skills. I am seeking a position in the education-related field that offers professional challenges utilising interpersonal skills, excellent time management and problem-solving skills.
