EMPLOYMENT GAP
My gap in employment was due to a period of self-employed work within the music industry. During this time, I managed my own workload, coordinated projects, collaborated with a range of individuals, and developed strong organisational, communication, and self-management skills. This experience strengthened my confidence, adaptability, and ability to work independently, all of which I now bring into my professional career.
