Archie Gill
Beckenham
Summary
I have years of experience in multiple fields, from years as a chef, Half a year running a hotel, a musician and a video editor. I strive in creative fields especially. In terms of music I have a distinct talent for songwriting and structuring, I collaborated with many people in my course helping to elevate each track I was added to. Due to my years in the kitchen I'm very familiar to harsh pressure environments. I've had to work whilst being screamed at, burning myself, and various other obstacles, I would always get the job done no complaints.
