Summary

I am a keen, focused and passionate fast learner that loves challenges and having the ability to work under pressure, meeting deadlines and able to adapt to different working environments. Aiming in achieving the best expectations that any job meets, always dedicated to fulfil all allocated tasks to the best of company's standards. Reliable individual with great punctuality. Working in retail gave me good communication skills, organisational analytical skills, making me a confident speaker and a friendly person under any circumstances. I am very keen to learn new things and generally have a passion for things I do and enjoy positively. As law is a passion of mine, I am looking forward to doing the SQE with masters whilst having experience in gaining insight in a law firm.
