About

I have acquired NCEA level 1 & 2 whilst attending Spotswood college plus some courses. I am enthusiastic and ready to work hard for my job. I am a responsible worker who listens to instructions to the margin and works well with other people.

I enjoy working with others and tend to get along with everyone as I am friendly and charismatic although I can still work independently and will be able to get the job done on time. I like working outside and will work in any weather, rain or shine, I also like to stay active and enjoy hands-on work that keeps me on my feet and working hard. I'd be happy to work anywhere and do anything as I am eager to learn and experience new things.
