PROFILE
I am a hardworking and honest
individual, always willing to
learn new skills. I am friendly,
helpful and polite. I am able to
work in a busy environment
and still produce high
standards of work. I am an
excellent team worker and
able to work independently as I
like to set myself goals which I
will achieve. I am dedicated to
work towards becoming one of
the best artisans in my field and
perform my work right the first
time around. I believe to be
proactive rather than reactive.
Working safely is of utmost
importance to me.
