Objective

Seeking part time or seasonal employment.

Skills & Strengths

Very creative, I love using my imagination to come up with new ways to solve problems.

A highly adaptable employee, with a background and desire to be in the Arts, changing to fit new situations as one of my strongest skills.

I have good oral communication skills and find it easy to talk to people.

Decision making is something that comes naturally to me and I have confidence in my judgements.

I pride myself on being an accurate, detail oriented person and work to a very high standard.

I am people-oriented; enjoy working/being with people, promoting their self-esteem through positive reinforcement, motivating them to complete tasks to standards and helping those in need.
