- Leveraging a multidisciplinary skill set, I adapt seamlessly to a diverse range of problems encountered daily. Whether its hanging and preparing gallery spaces for exhibitions or maintain multiple pieces of specialty equipment, I can always identify optimal methods for task completion.
- I facilitate effective communication throughout the university, strengthening interdepartmental relationships and building rapport so I can evaluate where my skills provide maximum impact.
I work alongside directors to bring end-of-year degree show concepts to fruition as well as optimizing work spaces and equipment in collaboration with academics, improving student experience. - Whilst effective communication allows me to follow the instruction of others often I am expected to work independently, I welcome to opportunity to display initiative and an ingrained attitude to go the extra mile. I regularly receive praise for my ability of complete tasking in an organised and safety conscious manor.
