Summary

I have recently finished up studying at Whitecliffe School of Arts and Design where I gained valuable knowledge and skills to help guide me into a career in the fashion industry. I am self motivated, eager to learn and excited for what the future might hold for me in this industry. I bring with me years of valuable customer service experience in both the hospitality industry and working for a bank. I am looking for a job in which I can continue to learn and grow and gain new skills.
