Profile
I am an enthusiastic and positive person who has a passion for travelling, creating new memories and storytelling. I work hard and have excellent organisation and leadership skills. My experiences abroad have made me more open-minded, flexible and open to new challenges. I have also developed excellent presentation and IT skills during multiple jobs. I love working in a team and reaching a shared goal together, but I also work well independently.
