About me
I have been working at Myla and Davis salons in South East London for the past six years and during this time have progressed from a salon assistant to a member of the management team. I have loved my role here and have gained much invaluable experience such as team working, leadership, problem solving, customer service, working under pressure and much more. I feel that it is now the right time to move on from this role and start to work towards a career more suited to my own personal goals and ambitions. Since graduating from university I have thrown myself into my own personal projects of which you can take a look at here:

Work history
    Lead Creative
    Caledonian Rd, London N7 8TT, UKFreelance
    I support families by creating and designing art and craft activities for them to use and enjoy whilst they are visiting relatives in prison. This work is particularly rewarding for me as it combines many of my own personal interests such as textiles, 3D building, drawing and working with both adults and children.
    Assistant Manager
    London, United KingdomFull Time
    My role at Myla and Davis is mostly the looking after of all the salon assistants over three locations. I am the direct manager of around 15 assistants, I organise and run inductions for new starters as well as regular weekly training. My role is busy and challenging, I pride myself in being an expert in the brand and business. Even though no two days in the salon are the same, knowing everything there is to know about the day to day running of the business means that I am the go to person for most issues and queries from staff, clients and business contacts.
