About me
I am highly motivated with a positive can-do attitude. I listen to people with interest and find myself offering a consultative and solutions approach which I find works in my favour. I have held down various roles within the hospitality sector and again enjoy delivering the best customer/client service. I can work effectively individually, using my own initiative and within a team. I thrive under pressure and enjoy new challenges.
