Skills

  • Team collaboration - I have worked with large building crews and film crews under the direction of managers and leads to execute many projects
  • Communication - Throughout my last 4 years I have been in roles where communication is crucial and I have had great feedback for it
  • Reliability - Being reliable is very important for me as I believe it is yet another distinct attribute which separates one from another, especially being in a role where you are expected to meet deadlines and guide others through
  • Problem-solving - As long as I can remember in the workforce I have been put in difficult circumstances with limited resources and deadlines to meet, being able to think forward and problem-solve has made it much easier to execute throughout these situations
