Charne Thoran
I would describe myself as a very determined and highly motivated person. I do take
my job seriously but I’m able to see things in perspective and believe I’m quite easy- going to work with. I’m an optimist rather than a pessimist – but I’m also a realist and I cope well when the going gets tough; I’m very good at finding solutions to problems. Above all, I would say I’m a positive and enthusiastic person – and I relish a challenge.
