Summary
Recent Environmental Science graduate with a strong foundation in data analysis, research, and practical fieldwork. My degree has equipped me with skills in analyzing environmental data using tools like Excel, GenStat, and Python, with additional hands-on experience in conducting field research. I also bring valuable leadership and organizational skills from my previous role as a supervisor in the hospitality industry, where I balanced university deadlines as well as honed my ability to manage teams, coordinate projects, and communicate effectively with stakeholders . I am eager to apply my academic knowledge and professional experience to contribute to sustainability and environmental management initiatives.
