I am an extremely enthusiastic and driven individual who thrives on working hard. I am confident and very motivated to succeed within the creative work sector, which is evident in my array of professional experiences already achieved whilst still studying a full-time college course. I typically set challenging goals and pursue them until completion, and I thrive off interpreting others' briefs in a creative manner.
I like to be organised and have high standards regarding maintaining my work environment. I have a flair for marketing my work as well as creating it and my aim is to pursue a career in commercial photography.
