My journey has been shaped by adaptability and resilience. After completing my degree in Economics, I navigated the challenges of the COVID-19 job market by becoming self-employed as a Certified Professional Aesthetician, where I achieved a 80% client retention rate. This entrepreneurial experience taught me the value of CRM, customer insights, service excellence, and perseverance.
I worked as a freelance financial adviser with Old Mutual, gaining exposure to the financial services industry while building client communication and problem-solving skills. Currently, I am completing my Civil Engineering diploma while working as a trainee assistant resident engineer, where I contribute to reporting and quality control on-site projects.
