About
I have experience in a variety of fields and industries, such as property, retail, sports, videography and production; along with recently entering the maritime industry with experience both abroad and at home. This variety of work has in turn allowed me to garner a large variety of skills and positive traits, which ensure I adapt quickly to whatever my job requires. I take pride in my work, am easy to get along with and dislike conflict.
My extensive sports background both in my youth and adult life ensures I have great teamwork and communication skills. I also believe I have a personality that allows me to connect with and communicate with people easily.
