Hobbies and interests

I was placed in my school tennis team each year in secondary school, and have played and maintained a passion for the sport for 13 years. This has developed my independence and critical thinking as well as my ability to be a team player in doubles scenarios.

Accomplishments

Duke of Edinburgh Silver Award

My outdoor expedition provided me with invaluable experience in team collaboration as well as maintaining a cool head when we strayed from our designated route and got lost.

My experience volunteering in the school library for this section of the award encouraged my creativity when making displays as well as speaking to customers who wished to borrow books and making their experience pleasant and easy.
