Torquay,Devon
Summary
I am very flexible person and I am willing to go the extra mile. This could mean anything from going above and beyond for the customer and employer, to learning to improve myself. I am a proud person who makes an effort in how I look and how I present myself. I work well individually and as part of a team. I do take my work ethic seriously but I also like to work in an environment that has a great atmosphere. I am dyslexic but this has never stopped me from wanting and being able to learn new things.
