About

I am a hard working and focused individual who would be a benefit to any work place. I have excellent customer service skills and can adapt to a wide range job roles. Outside of work I love taking my ex-racing Greyhound for walks around the local area, I enjoy keeping fit and having family and friends round for dinner.
