I am
a hard worker that strives for success. I have quite a lot of experience
working with people of all ages and I think that is one of my strong points as
I have had to work with disadvantaged children and children with learning and
behavioural problems. I love to learn and I am willing to be trained up to
fulfil a position. I am also very creative and can use this in practical
situations to solve problems.

the shop and the office.

I am very familiar with Microsoft Office and Adobe
Photoshop which I can use in a professional and creative manner.
Hobbies &
interests
I was in a street dance company for 2 years called Arc
Crew and in that time we won Youth Dance England. This meant I spent a lot of
time with the other members creating dance routines and inputting our own
ideas, this shows I can work well individually and as a part of a team.
For a number of years I have been interested in
photography as a hobby and I am very familiar with all standards of cameras and
equipment.
Also, I play guitar and I am a part of an acoustic duo in
which we take popular songs and strip them back to make them our own using
guitar, piano and voice.
