Summary

I have studied intensely in two areas of law practise, that is, Roman-Dutch law and Common law. I have an immense interest in championing the environment and wish to practice Environmental Law. I am determined to make a success in my profession as a lawyer. I enjoy assisting people in any way I am able which is why I worked in the care industry while studying my law profession. I have a motivated attitude and have a variety of powerful skills acquired in all the jobs I have done and skills adopted from life in general. I would like to expand my legal skills and integrate it with International Relations as I am interested in sustainability (in all three sectors). I am adept to various social media platforms and office technology programs. Hardworking and passionate job seeker with strong organizational skills eager to secure entry-level position. Ready to help team achieve company goals.
