Profile
I am seeking a to enhance my career further as a property manager within Dubai, with over 5-10 years’ experience in banking and real estate property project management I know i have what it takes to excel in Dubai . My vast range of self-built knowledge within the diverse sector helps me play to my advantage and I am eager to progress this further.
I have developed my understanding through several interactions of assisting on through many successful live projects. Personal development is a key ingredient within my life both in and out of work. In my spare time I enjoy reading books, listening to audiobooks, and podcasts. I believe selfcare is a must, the more you focus on taking care and educating yourself, the better you reflect this positivity and knowledge onto others. My spare time is filled with self-knowledge, a lot around the property sector to help me always be on top with property law and other changing legislations.
