Drawing on my experience in the hospitality industry, I quickly adapted to my new part-time job role and my responsibilities were upgraded to encompass most aspects of the running of the business, namely: table service, kitchen assistance, bar service and restaurant management. In this role I have developed a close rapport with customers and colleagues alike, and the ability to mediate between efficiency and approachability.

I chose to study a joint honours course so as to maximise the potential long-term implications of my academic career. As a result, I am now able to communicate efficiently and competently in French, and have a profound understanding of the intricacies of English literature, which has enhanced my capacity for analysis, discussion, and evaluation of cultural works of all genres.
