About
I am a highly motivated, hardworking, and helpful individual. I always dedicate to each job I am assigned too and am considered outstandingly reliable and flexible.
I am currently in year 2 of studying a foundation degree in animal science under the university of Plymouth. I plan to carry on to year 3 to gain my full degree. I desire to have a career with animals especially within the behavioral aspect in the industry.
I am a very passionate and caring individual that likes to educate people and make a difference to lives. If I was to describe myself, I would say I was very hard working and outgoing individual who is bubbly, very easy going and keen to learn new skills.
