Summary

Currently, I am on the verge of becoming a dance university graduate. This meticulous course involved a full time, fast paced schedule meaning punctuality and commitment was essential.

I have also gained work experience in several different areas. Within these roles, I have learnt the skills to be an energetic, hard-working employee with strong communication and organisation skills. This has contributed to many positive customer experiences.
