Zoe Deering

Lower Shotover

Summary

My name is Zoe Deering, I am a hard working and outgoing person. I am a long standing local and am proud to call Queenstown my home. From a young age I’ve always been told that I am great with people and can build relationships fast. At 13 I had my first job experience which was catering at a wedding for a day, this allowed me from a young age to gain work skills and social skills. And from there on I started my four year journey at countdown whilst finishing high school. 2024 was the year I started my journey for my chosen career in beauty attending the Beauty Therapy level 4 in Dunedin. I have passed this with a strong result and have now returned home to Queenstown, and have been working at MECCA. I love being in the industry, but now am extremely motivated to find a role that can extend my skills and having the opportunity to do this in a beauty therapy role such as EVE Beauty would enable me to continue with my passion in my chosen career field. I love to be in collaborative environments and have excellent communications skills and have a strong attention to detail. I have a desire to make a positive impact with every interaction and love engaging in every aspect of my workplace. I am extremely motivated to also continue to develop my skill set and would embrace any opportunity to learn other sectors within beauty therapy that would see me as an asset to your business.
