About me
A visual merchandising co-ordinator at Marks and Spencer and a First Class Honours graduate, seeking to develop a career in branding and the visual merchandising industry. During my degree, I successfully combined working full time in a challenging role with part time university showing myself to be motivated, organised and capable of working under pressure. I enjoy working independently but I can also lead and work well in a team. I am a reliable, hardworking, passionate individual who is eager to learn. I would like to utilise and build on my current skills and love for fashion and Adobe creative tools.
