TRISTAN TUAPAWA

Palmerston North,NEW ZEALAND

Summary

I enjoy working in a team environment and am able to get along with all people to achieve results. Reliability, honesty and punctuality with hard working capabilities are what you will receive from me. I have a quick understanding of situations and requirements of any job I set my mind to and love a challenge. Throughout my work history I have gained a wide variety of skills through a line of Family Owned Businesses and other interests I have endeavoured. I love being around people and making a difference in ones life. I am the type of person, who never takes anything personal, enjoys life day by day, with the added touch of a good sense of humour. Able to efficiently coordinate a multitude of tasks and work under pressure. A cooperative and supportive team member who can interact and communicate positively with colleagues, clients and management. I have an adaptable, flexible and positive attitude using the ability to learn new skills, accept changes and cope with the pressure calmly and patiently. I also have very good interpersonal skills relating to people at all levels, cultures and age groups.
