Leah Harkiss

I’m a creative and approachable individual with strong communication skills and a genuine passion for working with people. I achieved excellent academic results, gaining all A’s and a B in my Highers and Advanced Highers, and I’m quick to learn new systems and adapt to new environments. I’ve supported a small business with social media and admin tasks, and I also run a small Etsy shop selling prints from my own artwork. I enjoy being part of a team and bring energy, reliability, and enthusiasm to everything I do.
