About

I am a self-motivated, hard working individual who appreciates taking initiatives. I strive in team work as it enables the holistic idea of achieving an organizing goal. I am a fast learner who takes every task allocated seriously.

I am a people’s person. I really enjoy meeting and working with individuals of various backgrounds as I am known for being a great listener and clear communicator, whether I am engaging with friends or Colleagues.

I pay attention to all the details of a project. I make sure that every task is not just right but is also completed in a timely manner.

During my first year of study, at Varsity College, I had an experiential learning module. It was essentially based on becoming an entrepreneur for the day. As a team leader, we were instructed to prepare a business plan and create an idea of a product we could sell or a service we could provide, not forgetting to thoroughly research our target markets by advertising at various forums.

The project was a learning experience as I developed leadership, communication and management skills. I later completed my qualification at College Campus due to financial challenges.

I aspire to see myself grow, become a founder of a restaurant or a clothing store in a business environment. My long term goal is to be a successful business woman as well as to give back to the community by helping welfare, individuals living with HIV and Aids and those fighting various diseases. My societal contribution lies in having a better and improved education system too.
