I have a diverse background combining healthcare, community support, retail, hospitality, and sports education, giving me a broad and transferable skill set. As a Clinical Support Worker at an Eye Centre, I assisted ophthalmologists with vision assessments, diagnostic tests, and theatre preparations, while supporting patients throughout their consultations and procedures. In my role as a Community Care Assistant, I provided personal care, medication support, and companionship to individuals in their own homes, managing multiple visits independently and ensuring safety, dignity, and comfort. My experience in retail and hospitality, including as a Sales Assistant at Screwfix and a Waitress, developed my customer service skills, multitasking ability, and confidence in handling challenging situations, such as advising customers on technical products or managing busy dining services.
Alongside work, my education at sports college and school strengthened discipline, teamwork, and resilience. For example, representing my college in team sports taught me to stay focused under pressure, set goals, and work collaboratively to achieve results. Academically, I developed time management, organisation, and problem-solving skills, which I have applied to balancing work responsibilities across multiple roles. Across all my experiences, I have demonstrated reliability, adaptability, and a commitment to high standards, combining hands-on, practical skills with strong communication, observation, and administrative capabilities, making me well-suited for roles that require responsibility, teamwork, and continuous development.
