Summary

I am currently studying Law at Aston University in my 2nd year. I am a hard-working, motivated student who can take on a variety of tasks and complete them to the best of my ability. I have had experience in working within a team competently when it either comes to academic study, extra-curricular activities or in general life. I wish to take in more work experience over the next year to fully prepare myself for adult life along with developing my already competent professional skills even further.
