Summary

I am a highly motivated and passionate individual who strives to achieve the highest standard possible in any sort of task I set out to complete. I am currently a college student pursuing a degree in Hairdressing with a strong commitment to developing expertise in the beauty and cosmetology industry. Asides from hairdressing in my free time I also enjoy baking, reading and writing stories. I was once hand picked as a BBC young reporter which was a huge honour, because It's not every day you get chosen to be the voice of your generation, and I embraced that responsibility with passion. I have gained good communication and teamwork skills over the years, as through out my time in school, British Heart Foundation and Foodies and Grubbies. I'd say I gained these skills from having to work in team through out school. I was once on the netball team where I had to meet new people and work with them in order to complete one goal which was to win, so I know what it takes to be a successful asset to a team. My ability to connect with people enables me to build lasting relationships with colleagues and customers alike, enhancing team performance and contributing to a positive workplace culture. I bring a proactive approach to every task, ensuring that I can meet and exceed expectations even in high-pressure situations. I am adaptable and eager to grow professionally, embracing challenges as opportunities for personal and professional development.
