Summary

I am a professional with excellent interpersonal skills which I have gained from my experiences working in the hospitality and recruitment industry. Though, I would say that becoming a backpacker with a thirst for adventure had further developed my communication skills by learning how to engage and communicate with locals and other foreigners alike. I am inherently curious and inquisitive, always seeking to understand the unique brands, story and needs of individuals and businesses. This commitment has solidified my values in building lasting relationships based on trust and collaboration.


As an avid learner with a growth mindset, I am currently studying a product management course at BrainStation to gain new technical skills to supplement my customer-centric skillset.
