Summary

I am a personable, highly adaptable and curious final year vet student from the University of Nottingham. I have a diverse work background and an interest in small animal GP work primarily, as well as exotics. Over the years, I have developed a number of skills and attributes ranging from empathetic client communication and a team player mentality to manual dexterity and a driven and humble approach to learning. I am ready to take on this challenging career and eager to add my wide ranging abilities to a team that can support in their development.

Employment History

Diverse work background ranging from bar and restaurant catering to dog boarding and wildlife voluntary work. This has developed a strong transferrable skillset that has aided me during clinical rotations. I look forward to bringing this skillset to you practice where I can continue its development in a clinical setting. If you would like to learn more about my non clinical employment history and my transferrable skillset I would be happy to discuss them further in an interview.

Affiliations

  • My father's side of the family are from Tangier, Morocco, a city with a rich blend of Arab, French, Spanish and Berber cultural influences. This heritage has left me with an interest in all cultures, including food, language, music and art. I also have a good Spanish speaking ability.
  • I am an intermediate level guitar player and enjoy playing with my friends casually. I also played piano up to grade 6 as a child and am eager to rediscover this as a hobby.
  • I am a passionate football supporter and look forward to the Premier League games at the weekends.
