A little about me
I pride myself in being a very organised and tidy person; in my personal life as well as my work environment.
I am used to working long hours with set deadlines and communicating and working with groups of people ranging from 1 to 100 and more (Conference functions, wedding planning, specialized functions)
Due to my travels and working in the hospitality industry I have been blessed to work with a wide range of different people and cultures and see myself as a person that interacts and relates well with clients and guests. I refer to myself as a
‘hands-on-problem-solver’.
I will go out of my way to assist any work colleague, guest or client with their business queries or problems.
