About
I am a motivated and friendly student who has just completing my GCSEs (awaiting results), including Food Preparation and Nutrition, and plan to continue to study A-levels in Chemistry, Biology and Psychology. I am a reliable and hardworking individual with a positive attitude and a genuine interest in customer service. Through my volunteering and employment at a local cheerleading gym, I have developed strong communication, teamwork, and leadership skills.
I have supported younger members and, over the past year, have occasionally led coaching sessions, building confidence and responsibility. In addition, I have gained practical work experience on my grandad's ice cream van, where I prepared stock, served customers at busy events, and handled payments. This role has helped me build confidence in interacting with people, work efficiently in a fast-paced environment, and understand the importance of delivering excellent customer service.
I am keen to continue building on these experiences, contributing positively within a team and developing valuable skills that will support my future education and career aspirations.
