Summary
I am a year 13 student at Mount Hutt College, and I'm heading into my last term. I am a hardworking person who is willing to give anything a go; I like a good routine. I'm keen to learn new things and get out of my comfort zone. I work well with others and like being a part of a team, but I'm also independent, and can figure things out on my own. I have a good attitude, good common sense, and I try to keep things positive. I feel my wide range of work experience could be a bonus to your workplace.
