Summary

As a second-year Finance and Commercial Law student at the University of Auckland, I have developed a strong foundation in financial principles and a keen interest in banking. My experience in retail, as a Sales Assistant has equipped me with exceptional customer service skills and the ability to communicate effectively in both English and Chinese. My strong time management skills are evident from successfully juggling work and university commitments, highlighted by my achievement of NZQA Levels 2 and 3 with Excellence endorsement. Motivated to transition my customer service expertise and academic foundation into the banking sector, I am committed to delivering outstanding service and contributing positively to the team.
