Personal Profile D.O.B. 15th
February 1993
I consider myself a highly organised, confident individual with excellent communication and time
management skills. I believe in a high work ethic in which i strive to go beyond my own expectations as
well as others. I am extremely motivated and work well within a team or individually. I have also
achieved certificates in emergency first aid, manual handling, responsible service of alcohol and food
hygiene.
As I was in the Fire Cadets for two years, during this time I was promoted to Leading Fire-fighter which
included skills such as BA training, ladder work and either working with or instructing cadets with other
pieces of equipment. I can now take these skills and apply them to my career.
Outside of work i'm very interested in personal fitness, and outdoor sport. I have qualifications in
personal training, and love to snowboard in my spare time.
