Summary

I am a hard working 21 year old who has been in continuous employment since the age of 14, whilst completing my education in both school and also collage. I enjoy learning new skills to enhance my working experience and to work in a successful team.

Each stage of employment I have taken every bit of knowledge possible to add to my work ethics, which has contributed to both my work life but also my character. I am reliable to help out when possible such as covering shifts for other colleges, this has devolved a very keen motivation for punctuality which I pride myself on.
