Summary

Motivated secondary school leaver looking for a part time summer job before starting 6th form at the London Screen Academy to study Film and TV production before going to University to study English and Film Studies.


My other interests are:


Guitar (acoustic, electric lead and bass) up to Grade 7 and can tutor.

Ballet, I have attended dance lessons since I was 4 and am now on pointe.

I also trained in Jujitsu until the age of 15, reaching Junior black belt, however I had to take a break due to my GCSE studies and other extra curricular commitments.


I have a strong background caring for children from 4 - 8 years of age, due to babysitting. Great customer service skills and work ethic, (after my work experience in a fast paced award winning London hair salon), I was offered an apprenticeship. However I had to politely decline, as I want to pursue a career in TV or journalism. What I did learn in the 2 weeks I was there for work experience, was how to think quickly on my feet in a busy salon. How to follow instructions and attention to detail. How to communicate effectively with customers from lots of different backgrounds. To work as part of a team, by being reliable, hard working and punctual.


Given the opportunity, I would do my best in any position I am offered. I am enthusiastic and a fast learner and I am keen to learn new skills.
