About me
I am a creative, hardworking and a results-driven individual who is passionate about delivering results and achieving a given target. I am an excellent communicator, a skill I have developed through my experience in the design world and through my various employment positions. I am a multi-skilled professional who can adapt and learn quickly in many different working environments. I am looking for a position in which I can build a professional reputation, whilst using my charisma and personable character I want to build on my previous experience by moving into a primarily project management focused role and continue to be an all-rounded professional within the design industry.
