Summary

As an introduction to myself, I am an extremely hard working, confident young man with great communication skills. I feel as if I am an excellent leader but also a brilliant team member; as well as being punctual, reliable and conscientious. I am a happy individual and love social situations such as meeting and working with new people, and deal with those situations in a friendly, polite and interested manner.


I am aiming at enhancing my career in the civil engineering sector along with growing as much knowledge of the industry as I possibly can.
