INTRODUCE
Creative, energetic and enthusiastic; I am motivated to achieve what has been set both on a technical
and a creative level; I’ve been through various different jobs and I am ready to learn more about different
sectors, I thoroughly enjoy getting involved with team tasks, as I am reliable, trustworthy and polite
furthermore I am equally able to work on my own initiative and I enjoy working in a busy environment and
under pressure. Though I have a graphic design background I am technically minded to finding solutions
for issues with computers and other types of technology and mechanical equipment.

I enjoy talking personally to people on a collaborative level and I have had customer-facing experience in
the past, I am professional, polite and adaptable to different situations also I have thoroughly enjoyed
improvising when I can and I have demonstrated this during my previous experience.
