Summary

Reliable with strengths in customer service. Very sociable person with a positive attitude to working hard and getting the job done effectively. I do not hesitate when it comes to assisting others or following a chain of command if the whole team can complete the task to the best of our abilities. I also believe it is essential for me to be able to use my initiative in certain situations and not be too heavily reliant on my superiors, which is why I am patient in difficult situations that may occur and very good at adapting to the environment.
