Summary

I am currently in S5 studying my Highers at Portlethen Academy. I enjoy keeping myself fit and healthy as I regularly attend the gym.

I enjoy socialising with my friends, shopping and eating out.

I consider myself outgoing and good with people of all ages.

I take pride in my appearance and work ethic and I enjoy a challenge.

I feel I would be a great asset to Boux Avenue.
