Summary

Hi there!

Thank you for investing your time reading my C.V.

My goal is to find employment which adds to my current happiness in life. I chose to take the past six months off to relax after six long years in a role that I loved and excelled in. My feet are now itchy. It is definitely time to dust off the beach towel and jump back into a fast paced, fun environment with the opportunity to prove my skills in the work force. I learn fast. Instill passion, drive and exceed every task to a high standard. I am extremely confident in my abilities while knowing when to ask questions if I don't know the answer/outcome.
