I believe my greatest strength is in working with people. I enjoy working in a team which is part of what draws me to the theatre and ward environment. I am a warm and kind person who enjoys spending time to understand and work together with patients. I am attentive and always eager to learn from my seniors, I believe I will get out of my training what I put into it.
