Summary

My background in highly competitive sports has shaped me into a structured and goal-seeking individual who is always on the lookout for a new challenge. I am a quick learner and an honest team player who has developed a high level of communication skills through part-time jobs in fast-paced environments. I am highly motivated to pursue a job within the finance sector, which has been my main goal since I turned my focus away from competitive sports.
