About me
A highly innovative professional who has strong creative skills, a great eye for detail and a passion for photography and events.
Well presented, highly personable and efficient events producer with an ability to work independently in a changing and multi-tasking environment with numerous and competing deadlines. Having a strong customer service orientation and delivery focus and an active commitment to continuous improvement and quality standards. Excellent communication and creative skills, thriving in a fast paced, hands on, growth orientated environment.
I have transitioned from the field of education to pursue an exciting new career. My experience managing a classroom, building a relationship with my students’ parents, and focusing on education plans that work for each child have taught me a lot. Through past experiences I have been able to utilize my ability to liaise with broad range of people. I can manage relationships and address issues/problems accordingly. I’m confident in managing events and being able to solve problems on the day. I have a proactive approach to my workload and have the ability to balance the needs of others along with juggling a range of tasks, being able to prioritize when necessary.
“A person of the highest personal and professional integrity who always works extremely hard.” Susan Ye, Team Leader, 2015
