Summary

Recently working in the Health Care sector, I have found how much more compassion and empathy is wholly important when in a working environment; whether it be with colleges or customers. Being a positive and hardworking individual who strives to achieve the highest standard possible with any given task, I work well collaboratively and by myself whilst maintaining professionalism. Thriving under pressure allows me to work in fast paced environments, meeting deadlines, always willing to challenge my skill set and aid my life long learning.
