Personal Summary

 

I have worked with people of all ages throughout my seven year work history.  When I left high school I wanted to pursue a career helping people, so I got my first job in a nursing home aiding the every day living of elderly people, while studying nursing. I then went on to join the family business, as a family member became ill.  I was then exposed to customer service and really enjoyed it. I then landed myself a management position in Retail. This was a great opportunity for me to shine at what I was good at; helping and being of help to people.  My current job as a Group Leader in a Child Care Centre has been an excellent opportunity to further my wide vocational experience in such a rewarding field. While I am up for the challenges that are presented before me in my current role, I believe my strengths lie in working directly with other people. This is why I believe I should be considered for any forthcoming positions.

Personal Interests


I am a very outgoing person who really enjoys the outdoors.  I love going for bike rides and bush walks through rainforests and forestry.  I enjoy going camping and four wheel driving up at Fraser Island and Double Island Point.  These types of adventures really suit the bubbly and vibrant personality which comes to the fore in my current job working with children.
