Avelino

I am a driven school-leaver with a BTEC National Business qualification (Distinction and another to be determined) and A-Levels in Sociology and Portuguese, currently awaiting results. I am a bilingual individual, speaking both English and Portuguese fluently, with hands on experience in a fast paced customer service role, football coaching, and event coordination. Throughout my competitive and current years of playing football, the sport has taught me discipline, resilience and how to perform under pressure and any given setbacks - qualities that I am able to bring into a professional setting.
