Summary

I am a hard working individual with exceptional interpersonal skills, always willing to learn more. I am responsible and enjoy working as part of a team, as well as carrying the ability to work on my own initiative. I worked as a barista for a year at a high-demand, small café. During this, I gained thorough experience in the role, including opening and closing, managing the till, handling money, serving customers, preparing orders and cleaning. These tasks contributed to acquiring multiple skills, as I had to balance all of this each shift, mostly working alone, while maintaining superb customer service. I also worked voluntarily at a youth group, namely 'Beavers,' as part of the completion for my DofE awards. I participated at a summer camp, acting as a leader, where I planned and demonstrated various activities. This position majorly helped my confidence for any jobs I worked in after. I aided my secondary school's library staff, helping as an assistant. This opportunity enabled my development in organisation, which I have maintained to date. I am resilient and known to be a 'people's person,' always going the extra mile for those around me, whether it's employers, customers or friends. I am motivated and believe the skills I grasped from these experiences can be applied to any field of work.
