Show profile Hide profileI am a quick learner and I am not too proud to ask for assistance when needed. I do not view mistakes as failure but merely as another learning opportunity. I see myself as someone with the potential to lead, having been placed in numerous leadership positions.
I am a motivated individual who believes that nothing is impossible and all it requires is hard work and perseverance. Combined with my eagerness to constantly improve my personal skills and knowledge, I am confident that I can add value and deliver on required work. Thus, given the opportunity I am sure that I can be an asset to any initiative, project or company. My experience from working in the hospitality industry as a chef, manager and now in marketing combined with the experience of running my own photography business and pursuing my Bachelor of Commerce in Marketing Management degree has allowed me to obtain the following vital skills:
• Experienced in Excel, Word, Power Point, Photoshop, and InDesign.
• Advanced photography abilities.
• Excellent communication skills and a customer relationship orientated point of view. I possess the ability to effortlessly engage and communicate with prospective clientele and promote confidence.
• Excellent staff management, interpersonal and relationship-building skills. I treat staff as equals, respect and train them and inspire them to improve their knowledge/skills in all aspects of work.
• I am time efficient, neat, analytical, well organised and possess good problem-solving abilities by thinking critically.
• I can create and analyse statistical reports fast and efficiently.
My personal interests include but are not limited to the following:
• Outdoor activities and camping
• Sport such as golf, squash and surfing
• Strategy board games
• Coding busy learning HTML and Python
