Summary

I am an extremely confident, dedicated and competent person in all fields that i have worked in.

I have been directly involved in the motor industry for nearly 20 years and have worked at every level possible.

I have demonstrated that consistently that I am hard working, diligent, persuasive and determined in every aspect of the roles i have undertaken.

My customer care is second to none and I have never received negative feedback from those i have dealt with in all the roles i have undertaken.

I am driven to succeed in life and want to succeed at everything that comes my way.

Being conscientious, considerate, personable, positive and humble are second nature to me not only in a work environment but in my personal life as i believe that the two work together.
