Nicole Daly

I am a motivated and adaptable person with strong communication and interpersonal skills, developed through customer-facing experience. I demonstrate excellent self-management and leadership as a self-employed teacher and performer which involved extensive planning and coordinating for all of my bookings, events and content. I am self taught but confident in using a range of technical equipment and software including; Microsoft Office, Canva, Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Premiere and Ableton Live.

I am a quick learner who enjoys new challenges and is committed to continuous development both professionally and personally.
