I started my career as soon as I completed my schooling. I’m an honest, trustworthy and reliable individual. I’ve worked within various industries carrying out administrative duties. I am willing to learn new applications/programs that I don’t have experience in to prove my self- worth. Although work ethics have changed over time, I still feel that I should be given a fair and equal opportunity as the younger generation.
