Summary
I am hard working, conscientious and quick to learn. I am currently working towards a Certificate IV Outdoor Leadership qualification and work on a part time basis as a pool lifeguard at Aquamotion, Wanneroo. My objective in the next three months is to complete the leadership course which will include a qualification in abseiling, climbing, canyoning and bush walking. I then wish to pursue a career in the emergency environment.
I have a keen interest in working in a rescue/emergency environment and have the willingness to undertake the necessary training. I have a calm nature and have the attributes to respond to abnormal or emergency situations managing multiple priorities with a positive attitude.
