Emma Povey

I am 24 years, I enjoy doing hands-on tasks and making the most of my time doing the things I enjoy doing. Whatever challenges get put in my way I always like to find a way to overcome them and carry on. I like to make people laugh and will do what I can to make someone smile, but when it's time to buckle down in working I like to get on with it. I am fully flexible to work any time.
