Summary
I am a loyal and dedicated worker who is not shy when it comes to hard work or getting my hands dirty. I am reliable, punctual, and trustworthy.
My first job was in the hospitality industry as a casual waitress. I was still attending high school and primarily worked on the weekends, but I also picked up shifts after school. The Plymouth International gave me the necessary skills and work experience during this time.
As an interior and exterior decorator, I have become accustomed to working long hours. It was a very "hands on" approach to work and physically demanding. However, I found it rewarding once we had completed a job for another satisfied customer.
I have recently joined the team at Strandon Health, working part-time as a receptionist and health care assistant. Both roles are new to me, and I look forward to the daily challenges.
