Summary
I'm experienced in retail work, including teamwork, communication skills and customer service. Joining the cadet force taught me patience and dedication, as well as the ability to listen and follow instructions, along with supreme time-management skills. I will ensure I always show up on time and make sure the job is always done, and I am incredibly loyal to the business I work for and can contribute skills I've learned from completing events such as DofE & Ten Tors, with extreme determination and willpower to keep pushing through difficult tasks.

Work history
Sales Assistant
Iceland
2024.11 - 2026.04
- As a part-time employee at Iceland, I enhanced my skills in customer service, time management, and task completion, while learning how to effectively work as a team on big tasks such as taking in the weeks delivery, and how to execute tasks from the management with efficiency and effort. This job taught me the difference between high and low effort and the difference it makes in a work environment.
Employee
Tesco
Truro
2023.07 - 2023.07
- I completed a week's work experience at Tesco, involving restocking shelves, working at the till, and online picking. As work experience, I was taught how working in a busy environment causes employees to be diligent, on time and always up for the job. This week's worth of experience taught me how to be professional how to cooperate with other team members.

Accomplishments
Bronze DofE, Silver DofE - Completed in 2021 & 2023
Having to overcome inner obstacles, such as pushing my body to the limits and overcoming mental challenges. On top of this, I learned many new skills - including skateboarding and cooking, with volunteering as another section; it improved my communication and leadership skills among teams. DofE greatly assisted me in becoming a strong-willed, persevering and determined person.
Accomplishments
10 Tors 35 & 45
Similar to DofE, 10 Tors is a challenging, exhausting and tough event. Lasting a total of two days of walking over Dartmoor's rough terrain, the 10 Tors challenge is widely known for its difficulty, and with only six people per team, it makes the challenge even harder. 10 Tors is notoriously difficult to complete, with the training lasting from October to March, travelling across Dartmoor every other weekend in practise hikes to prepare for the event. Overall, 10 Tors was one of the best experiences of my life, and I feel grateful I had the opportunity to complete it twice.
