SELF PORTRAIT
I am a hard worker with a great sense of responsibility. I am a keen, fast leaner who enjoy working under pressure and getting the job done. I am
honest and reliable and I take pride in my work making sure it is done right the first time around. I am loyal to my friends and family and also to my
co-workers as I believe the people I work with and see every day are the building stones to my future.
I see myself climbing the ladder of success, applying myself to every situation as best as I can, learning as much as I can from my seniors and
bettering myself daily.
