Summary

I’m a hardworking and reliable student currently studying for my GCSEs at St Matthew’s High School. I have valuable experience working at festivals, food festivals, and events, where I’ve gained strong customer service skills and confidence handling payments. I work well in fast-paced environments, enjoy being part of a team, and always put in my best effort. I’m now looking for my next opportunity to continue building my skills and contribute to a positive, hardworking team.

  • Outside of work and school, I’m a creative person who enjoys reading, drawing, and making jewellery in my free time. I love spending time with my family and being out in nature, whether it's going for walks or just enjoying the fresh air. I’m always looking for new ways to express myself and enjoy the little things in life.
