Summary

Motivated individual with lots of life experience so far as well as experience in different roles, varying from finance administration to personal care. I am a positive and driven individual who will always strive to do a job to the best of my ability with a smile on my face- if unsure I will always raise the question to ask what I could do to improve the work I am doing. In my previous work experience I have found that I work well as part of a team but also work well individually.
