Interests

I am currently studying Fashion Design (BA) at NUA university, I enjoy working in a swimming pool and gym, as it helps me engage with customers and I have gained numerous qualifications in this industry as I have a true dedication for the leisure industry since an early age. I am a confident, talkative person who is sociable with colleagues, creating strong bonds both within my workplace and outside. I enjoy working as part of a team but also thrive being in my own company, particularly while participating in sports such as running, swimming and regularly going to the gym. I have recently run 2 marathons: the London Marathon 2022 and run over 30km a week alongside university and a part time job; therefore, time management is important to me. I have a particular interest in supporting my local beaver group, progressing from young leader to leader. I enjoy supporting children in learning new skills in a fun environment.
