Personal profile:
I come from a very physical based working background having previously worked in construction. Daily tasks involved brick laying, paving, using hand and power tools, lorry and digger driving in and around the working yard, as well as performing managerial roles on site. Additionally, I studied creative media at college and can video and photo edit.
As of late I have 5 years’ experience as a Property Professional. In these roles, I have developed excellent leadership, customer service and communication skills. I am confident working under pressure within a team as well as using my own initiative. I am eager to learn and expand on my knowledge and skill set.
I am a hardworking, ambitious and highly motivated individual with the ability to think laterally. I am a very positive character with an easy-going personality and a “can do” attitude.
