As a highly organised, creative and charismatic worker with strong
interpersonal skills, my ability to communicate effectively enables me to
network with ease and prioritise the requirements of my clients. Traveling
the world and working in different countries has developed my sensitivity
to people cross culturally, allowing me to easily adapt and act wisely in
challenging and highly pressured environments. I describe myself as a
catalyst, someone who makes things happen and spark the interest of
those around me, demonstrating strong leadership skills and thriving in a
productive team.
